[Verse 1] Now I’ve heard there was a sacred word. That Jala said and it named the Lord. A word the angels sing in holy chorus. It goes like this—a tav, a resh. A fearsome joy, a fervent wish. The Comet King incanting HaMephorash. [Verse 2] Your faith was strong, but you needed proof. Hay hay yud tav mem tav vav kuf. You saw a ship another sailed before us. You saw his flag on the highest mast. You saw a dream that couldn’t last. The Comet King receiving HaMephorash. [Verse 3] You say I took the Name in vain. And after that, I lost the Name. I gave it back to Him who holds it for us. But echoes sound in every word. It doesn’t matter what occurred. You never really lose the HaMephorash. [Verse 4] Somebody had to; no one would. I tried to do the best I could. And now it’s done, and now they can’t ignore us. And even though it all went wrong. I’ll stand against the whole unsong. With nothing on my tongue but HaMephorash.
