TTTO: Yedid Nefesh
Standing side by side,
Tears well up in their eyes,
Each unaware that the other is there,
Whispering a silent prayer.
Counsellors:
Dear Rebbe I want you to see,
The campers you entrusted with me,
Each one a jewel so precious and rare,
You have placed into my care.
To live with you every moment,
Was the message I tried to impart,
To bring you L’matoh together with us,
Each of us doing our part.
But Rebbe the summer is over,
And now that my Shlichus is through,
I ask that the spirit of Gan Yisroel,
Continue in all that they do.
Campers part:
Dear Rebbe I’d like you to see,
How much Gan Yisroel changed me,
I’m closer to you like ever before,
Connected forever more.
My counselor your Shliach inspired me,
With true dedication and love,
A friendship I’ll treasure forever,
How can I thank you enough.
Oy Rebbe, your Gan Yisroel,
Will always find place in my heart,
It’s Chayos and warmth will remain with me,
It’s lessons I’ll treasure and guard.
Everyone:
As the crowd in the Ohel does grow,
Mendele turns to go,
As he leaves he sees, a familiar face,
Camper and counselor embrace.
Good-bye Gan Yisroel,
Farewell to those wonderful times,
Your memories will always be part of me,
Good-bye Gan Yisroel good-bye.
