Notes on recording

rav Riccardo Di Segni recalls this tune as taught to him by rav Giuseppe Laras zl, at the time chief rabbi in Ancona.

Notes on music

Significantly, the melody is basically the same as the one recorded for "Adon Olam" by R. Elia in Leo Levi's recordings for the Ancona ritual (see link below).

Notes on text

The poem, composed by Mordechai Dato, was much in use in Italian communities in the XVIII century, judging from its appearance in various siddurim. We include a copy of the full text as it appears in “ספר שירים ותשבחות שירים והודאות“ printed in Firenze in 1755 and available at NLI here https://www.nli.org.il/en/books/NNL_ALEPH990011392800205171/NLI
