Lecha Dodi 09:32
Lechah dodi, likrat kalah - penei shabat nekabelah 
Shamor vezachor bedibur echad
hishmi'anu el hameyuchad
hashem echad ush'mo echad
leshem uletif'eret velitehilah
. Lechah dodi...

 Likrat shabat lechu venelchah
ki hi mekor hab'rachah
merosh mikedem nesuchah
sof ma'aseh bamach'shavah techilah

. Lechah dodi...

 Mik'dash melech ir meluchah
kumi tze'i mitoch hahafechah
rav lach shevet be'emek habacha
ve'hu yachamol alaich chem'lah. 

Lechah dodi...

 Hitna'ari me'afar kumi
lib'shi big'dei tif'artech ami
al yad ben Yishai beit halach'mi
kar'vah el nafshi ge'alah

Lechah dodi...

Hitoreri, hitoreri,
ki ba orech, kumi uri,
uri, uri, shir daberi,
kevod hashem alaich nig'lah.

 Lecha dodi...
 Lo tevoshi ve'lo tikal’mi mah tishtochachi umah tehemi, bach yechesu ani'ei ami, venivnetah ir al tilah.
 Lecha dodi...

 Vehayu lim'shisah shosaich, verachaku kol miv’laich, yasis alaich Elohaich, kimesos chatan al kalah.

 Lecha dodi...

 Yamin usmol tif'rotzi,
ve'et hashem ta'aritzi,
al yad ish bein partzi,
venis'mechah venagilah.

 Lecha dodi...

 Boi beshalom ateret ba'alah,
gam besimchah uvetzahalah
toch emunei am segulah,
boi kalah, boi, kalah;
toch emunei am segulah,
boi kalah, shabat malkah.

Lechah dodi, likrat kalah - penei shabat nekabelah
. Lechah dodi, likrat kalah - penei shabat nekabelah

about

This mystical hymn to the Shabbat was composed by the kabbalist Rabbi Shlomo HaLevi Alkabetz (c. 5260-5340), teacher and brother-in-law of the famed kabbalist Rabbi Moshe Cordovero. Rabbi Alkabetz was one of the esteemed members of the Safed circle of scholars and mystics. One of the themes of the hymn - preparing oneself to greet the Shabbat - is based on the Talmud’s account of how the Sages would welcome the Holy Day (Shabbat 119a): Rabbi Chanina would wrap himself in his cloak and say, “Come, let us go and greet the Shabbat Queen.” Rabbi Yannai would don his robe and say, “Enter O bride! Enter, O bride! ”
