אַאַמוּ"ר אָמַר
My revered father, the Rebbe [Rashab], once said:
צְוִוישׁעֶן קעֶלט אוּן כְּפִירָה אִיז גאָר אַ דִינעֶ מְחִיצָה
“Only a very fine line separates spiritual frigidity from an actual denial of G‑d.
עֶס שְׁטעֶהט כִּי ה' אֱלֹקֶיךָ אֵשׁ אוֹכְלָה הוּא
It is written, ‘G‑d your L‑rd is a consuming fire.’
אֱלֹקוּת אִיז פְלאַם פַייעֶר
Divinity is a flaming fire.
לעֶרנעֶן אוּן דאַוועֶנעֶן בֶּעדאַרף מעֶן מִיט הִתְלַהֲבוּת הַלֵּב
One’s Torah study and prayer ought to be fired by an ardent heart,
אַז כָּל עַצְמוֹתַי תֹּאמַרְנָה דִי דִּבְרֵי ה' אִין תּוֹרָה וּתְפִלָּה
so that ‘all of my limbs will proclaim’ the words of G‑d in Torah study and in prayer.”
