We are in Elul and I am thinking about the upcoming High Holy Days, and one of my favorite Yom Kippur poems and melodies is on my mind. Last year I made an aborted attempt to translate it into English in such a way that it can still be sung to the melody I know. This year I'm making the attempt again.

Here's a more instrumental than usual rendition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfLkEjuGxpI
