Netzach sh’b Tiferet*
As desert seed beneath sandy soil,
waits in dryness—may the sweet hidden
pulp of all our longings for reunion
on the path with You, Ya,
be nourished by our memories
of all Your petals opening
beneath the blazing sun, continually
giving birth to each of us.

When the first moisture reaches us,
let us wake and lift ourselves
into Your light that falls
equally on all joys and sorrows
so we may see in shine and shadow
how persistence awakens balance.
How love in balance with compassion
welcomes all who rise beneath
our sky dome to greet beauty’s
infinite enduring truth.
