In Your Time Of Grief
By Samuel HaNagid
Translated by A.Z. Foreman
Click to hear me recite the original in Andalusi Hebrew
In your time of grief, hold up your heart,
Even if you stand at slaughter's doors.
The candle, before flickering out, flares up,
And the lion with a stab-wound roars.

בעתות עצבך
שמואל הלוי בן יוסף הנגיד
اسماعيل ابن النغريلة
בְּעִתּוֹת עָצְבְּךָ חַזֵּק לְבָבָךְ,
שמואל הלוי בן יוסף הנגיד
اسماعيل ابن النغريلة
בְּעִתּוֹת עָצְבְּךָ חַזֵּק לְבָבָךְ,
וְאִם תַּעְמֹד עֲלֵי שַׁעַר הֲרֵגָה:
לְנֵר – מָאוֹר בְּטֶרֶם הַדְּעִיכָה,
וְלִכְפִירִים מְדֻקָּרִים – שְׁאָגָה.
