[Chorus]
Fly

[Verse 1]
This is because, through his sins
The holy letters fly away from his name
Such is the way of the wicked
So it was with Ephron at first
He is written with the name Ephron, including the letter vov
As it is said
Ephron was sitting among the children of Heth
Genesis 23:10
But after he weighed out money from Abraham
His name is written missing a letter
And Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver
Which he had named in the hearing of the children of Heth
400 shekels of silver
Current money
With the merchant
So, too, it was with Jehonadab from the moment he joined himself to Amnon
Son of King David
And gave him wicked counsel in the matter of Tamar
He lost the letter
From his name, as it is said
But Jonadab, a friend whose name was Jonadab, son of Shimeah, David's brother
And Jonadab was a very wise man, and he said unto him
Why art thou, being the king's son
So lean from day to day?
Wilt thou not tell me?
And Amnon said unto him
I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister

[Verse 2]
So, too
With every person who dies
The angel tests him in this matter
And asks him to state his name
If the dead person is wicked
He is unable to state his name
When a single letter has been taken from his name
What remains is no longer his name
Moreover
Sometimes what remains no longer forms any word at all
As with the names Noah, Dan, or Gad
If one letter is removed from them
What is left has no meaning
Thus
When the dead person does not know his name
It is a sign to the angel of death that this dead person is wicked
He subjects him to judgment
And beats him with a harsh beating

[Chorus]
Fly

[Verse 2]
This is because forgetfulness
Is a sign of an abundance of kelipa
And there is no greater forgetfulness than that of a person who does not remember his own name
Because of the abundance of kelipa within him
He is struck with a harsh and heavy beating
A dead person who remembers his name is not so treated
He is beaten only with a light and weak beating

[Chorus]
Fly

[Verse 2]
Everything depends upon the degree of wickedness, the more they acted wickedly and caused others to sin, and the less they did during their lives to separate the kelipa from themselves
The greater is their toil in separating it after death, corresponding to this they forget their names
And this is the secret of what they said
The reason that the wicked lose the letters
Of their names

[Chorus]
No
The reason that the wicked lose the letters
  of their names

[Verse 2]
Is that a person's name
Is the name of his soul
Thus, the letters of his name
Are the essence of his soul
Thus, the letters of his name
Are the essence of his soul
This is as it is said
In the Torah concerning the person who exalts himself in his heart
And the Lord shall blot out his name
From under heaven
The meaning is the cutting off of his soul
From its root
So, too
It is said concerning Boaz
Moreover Ruth the Moabite
The wife of Mahlon
Have I purchased to be my wife
To raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance
That the name of the dead
Be not cut off from among his brethren
The name of the dead
Means the soul of the dead person
The wicked
Through their sins
Because the letters corresponding to their souls to be erased and broken, therefore they do not know their names after their deaths
Thus
Is fulfilled in them

[Chorus]
[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
The Kabbalist brought a useful counsel
So that a person will not forget his name after his death
Every day he should combine the letters of his own name with the letters of the word Neshama soul
For example
If his name is Yitzchak
He should form before himself an arrangement such as
None, Yod, Shin, Zadi, Mem, Chet, He, Kuf
It is also good for each person to find a verse from the Torah
The prophets or the writings whose first letter is the same as the first letter of his name
And whose final letter is the same as the final letter of his name
For the name Yitzchak
For example
The verse is
He brought them out of darkness
And the shadow of death
And broke their bonds asunder
A person should keep this verse constantly fluent in his mouth
And it will be of benefit to him by reminding him in a time of distress
Reciting this verse is also beneficial so that he will not forget his name
When answering the angel who asks him in the grave
Tell me your name

[Verse 2]
It is good always to say this verse first
Before the second recitation of
May the words of my mouth be acceptable
At the end of the Shmoneh Esray prayer
If a person has two names
He should say two verses corresponding to them
Or one verse
Whose first letter corresponds to the first letter of his first name
And whose final letter corresponds
To the final letter
Of his second name

[Chorus]

[Verse 1] The wicked forget their names immediately after death And therefore are beaten with great force At first, when a person is buried His body is like an inanimate stone and feels nothing whatsoever But when the tomb is sealed, the judgment of Chibut HaKever begins for him The angel of death comes to him and sits upon his grave The angel of death comes to him and sits upon his grave They asked Rabbi Elazar In the name of Mosakeh Chibut HaKever He does this in order to overshadow him And to make a separation between him and the other dead So that they will not be pained by what is being done to him And he says And sits upon his grave Then the angel strikes him with his hand in mockery and humiliation By doing so, he causes the portion of the nefesh The lower soul which remains with him in the grave to enter into him The dead person is then given the power of speech Immediately the angel says to him Rise, tell me your name The dead person answers It is revealed and known before the one who spoke And the world came into being that I do not know what my name is Immediately the angel brings into his body The portions of Ruach and Neshama as well And subjects him to judgment The angel asks the dead person his name Because the register of his sins is in the angel's hand And those sins are written under his name The angel wishes the sinner to see the notes in his hand Written under his name by the authority of the Most High So that he may acknowledge the justice of the judgment imposed upon him But the dead person Forgets his name [Chorus] Fly [Verse 1] This is because, through his sins The holy letters fly away from his name Such is the way of the wicked So it was with Ephron at first He is written with the name Ephron, including the letter vov As it is said Ephron was sitting among the children of Heth Genesis 23:10 But after he weighed out money from Abraham His name is written missing a letter And Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver Which he had named in the hearing of the children of Heth 400 shekels of silver Current money With the merchant So, too, it was with Jehonadab from the moment he joined himself to Amnon Son of King David And gave him wicked counsel in the matter of Tamar He lost the letter From his name, as it is said But Jonadab, a friend whose name was Jonadab, son of Shimeah, David's brother And Jonadab was a very wise man, and he said unto him Why art thou, being the king's son So lean from day to day? Wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said unto him I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister [Verse 2] So, too With every person who dies The angel tests him in this matter And asks him to state his name If the dead person is wicked He is unable to state his name When a single letter has been taken from his name What remains is no longer his name Moreover Sometimes what remains no longer forms any word at all As with the names Noah, Dan, or Gad If one letter is removed from them What is left has no meaning Thus When the dead person does not know his name It is a sign to the angel of death that this dead person is wicked He subjects him to judgment And beats him with a harsh beating [Chorus] Fly [Verse 2] This is because forgetfulness Is a sign of an abundance of kelipa And there is no greater forgetfulness than that of a person who does not remember his own name Because of the abundance of kelipa within him He is struck with a harsh and heavy beating A dead person who remembers his name is not so treated He is beaten only with a light and weak beating [Chorus] Fly [Verse 2] Everything depends upon the degree of wickedness, the more they acted wickedly and caused others to sin, and the less they did during their lives to separate the kelipa from themselves The greater is their toil in separating it after death, corresponding to this they forget their names And this is the secret of what they said The reason that the wicked lose the letters Of their names [Chorus] No The reason that the wicked lose the letters of their names [Verse 2] Is that a person's name Is the name of his soul Thus, the letters of his name Are the essence of his soul Thus, the letters of his name Are the essence of his soul This is as it is said In the Torah concerning the person who exalts himself in his heart And the Lord shall blot out his name From under heaven The meaning is the cutting off of his soul From its root So, too It is said concerning Boaz Moreover Ruth the Moabite The wife of Mahlon Have I purchased to be my wife To raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance That the name of the dead Be not cut off from among his brethren The name of the dead Means the soul of the dead person The wicked Through their sins Because the letters corresponding to their souls to be erased and broken, therefore they do not know their names after their deaths Thus Is fulfilled in them [Chorus] [Instrumental] [Verse 1] The Kabbalist brought a useful counsel So that a person will not forget his name after his death Every day he should combine the letters of his own name with the letters of the word Neshama soul For example If his name is Yitzchak He should form before himself an arrangement such as None, Yod, Shin, Zadi, Mem, Chet, He, Kuf It is also good for each person to find a verse from the Torah The prophets or the writings whose first letter is the same as the first letter of his name And whose final letter is the same as the final letter of his name For the name Yitzchak For example The verse is He brought them out of darkness And the shadow of death And broke their bonds asunder A person should keep this verse constantly fluent in his mouth And it will be of benefit to him by reminding him in a time of distress Reciting this verse is also beneficial so that he will not forget his name When answering the angel who asks him in the grave Tell me your name [Verse 2] It is good always to say this verse first Before the second recitation of May the words of my mouth be acceptable At the end of the Shmoneh Esray prayer If a person has two names He should say two verses corresponding to them Or one verse Whose first letter corresponds to the first letter of his first name And whose final letter corresponds To the final letter Of his second name [Chorus] [Instrumental]
