There are ten melodies,
מֵהֶם תְּנוּעוֹת בִּלְבָד
some of them merely melodic phrases,
מְיוּחָסִים לְרַבֵּנוּ הַזָּקֵן שֶׁהוּא בְּעַצְמוֹ חִבְּרָם
whose composition is ascribed to the Alter Rebbe.
הַמְיוּחָסִים לְרַבֵּנוּ הָאֶמְצָעִי
Those ascribed to the Mitteler Rebbe
הַיְנוּ שֶׁנִּתְחַבְּרוּ בִּזְמַנּוֹ וְהָיוּ מְנַגְּנִים אוֹתָם לְפָנָיו
were composed in his time and were sung in his presence.
אֲבָל לֹא שֶׁהוּא מְחַבְּרָם
He was not their composer, however.
וְהָיְתָה אֶצְלוֹ קְבוּצַת אַבְרֵכִים מְנַגְּנִים
He had a group of musical young men
"וִידוּעָה בְּשֵׁם "דעֶם מִיטעֶלעֶן רֶבִּי'ס קאַפּעֶלעֶ
who were known as “the Mitteler Rebbe’s choir,”
וְנֶחְלְקָה לִשְׁתֵּי פְּלוּגוֹת
which comprised
בַּעֲלֵי שִׁיר — בְּפֶה
singers
וּבַעֲלֵי זִמְרָה — בְּכֵלִים שׁוֹנִים
and various instrumentalists.
