A Voice in the Forest - Kol Bayar A Voice in the Forest - Kol Bayar

Sung by Aryeh Leib Hurwitz Piano: Avremy Berko Studio & Video: Flowmotion Studio Directed by: Yanky Tietelbaum & Bracha Torenheim This moving melody and nigun was composed by the renowned righteous man Reb Aryeh Leib, known as the Shpoler Zeide, a Tzadik, whose was known for his amazing love and compassion. Known for going out of his way to save a fellow yid, his personal annual seudas Hoda'ah is celebrated by his descendants every year on the 19th of Shvat, the day he was miraculously saved from harms way. This soulful melody is a dialogue between the Almighty Father and His children, the people of Israel. The Father looks for His children in the Diaspora, Galus, and implores them to return home to the Holy Land. "Where have you been that you have forsaken Me?" He inquires of His children, "Dear children, please return home, I feel forlorn without you." The children's answer is "But, Father, how can we return when there is a guard blocking the door?"
