מִשִּׂיחַת אַאַמוּ"ר מוֹצָאֵי שַׁבָּת קֹדֶשׁ לֶךְ לְךָ תרנ"א
In the course of a talk that my revered father, [the Rebbe Rashab,] delivered on Motzaei Shabbos [Parshas] Lech Lecha, 5651 (1890), he said:
אִין דִי עֶרשׁטעֶ יאָהרעֶן פוּן זַיינעֶ נְשִׂיאוּת
“Once, in his first years as Rebbe,
האָט דעֶר אַלטעֶר רֶבִּי געֶזאָגט בָּרַבִּים
the Alter Rebbe declared in public:
"מעֶן בּעֶדאַרף לעֶבּן מִיט דעֶר צַייט"
‘We must live with the times.’
דוּרךְ זַיין בּרוּדעֶר מַהַרִי"ל
“Through his brother, R. Yehudah Leib,
האָבּעֶן זִקְנֵי הַחֲסִידִים אוֹיסגעֶפוּנעֶן
the elders of the chassidic community discovered
אַז דעֶר רֶבִּי מֵיינט
the Rebbe’s intent:
אַז מ'דאַרף לעֶבּעֶן מִיט דעֶר פָּרָשַׁת הַשָּׁבוּעַ
We must live with the Torah portion of the week
אוּן פָּרָשַׁת הַיּוֹם פוּן דעֶר סִדְרָה פוּן דעֶר וואָךְ
and, more specifically, of the current day.
נִיט נאָר לעֶרנעֶן דִי פָּרָשַׁת הַשָּׁבוּעַ יעֶדעֶן טאָג
It is not enough to study [a segment of] the weekly Torah portion every day;
נאָר לעֶבּעֶן מִיט אִיר
we must live with it.”
