Vzakeini

As I watch my mother stand
In the Shabbos candlelight
There's a question in my mind
Burning bright
What is it that she whispers
What's the reason for her tears
What is the secret behind
A mommy's prayers

Vzakeini, Vzakeini
That's the tefilah that she says
She is davening for you
For your health and your success
That you grow up to be faithful
As the Torah lights your way
And that she'll see only nachas
From you each day

As I stand there at her side
As I watch her silently
I think of all the dreams
She has for me
All I want is to keep trying
Just to make them all come true
Mommy I promise, that I'll do
My best for you

Vzakeini, Vzakeini
That's the tefilah that she says
She is davening for you
For your health and your success
That you grow up to be faithful
As the Torah lights your way
And that she'll see only nachas
From you each day

Vzakeini, Vzakeini
That's the tefilah that she says
She is davening for me
For my health and my success
That I grow up to be faithful
As the Torah lights my way
And that she'll see only nachas
From me each day
From me each day
From you each day
From me each day
From you each day
