Yosef Zev Braver partnered with Yanki Cohen, to release the single “Ki Nicham” (Hashem has comforted Zion).

 

‘Ki Nicham’ is a modern Chassidic song, of Yanki’s first compositions. Yanki first recorded a guide to this song. When he played it for Yosef Zev, they knew they were going to release it together, to celebrate the pair’s deep connection to Jerusalem.

 

“The uniqueness of ‘’Ki Nicham’ is that it expresses the Jewish People’s happiness in the days following Tisha B’Av, in the form of a yearning song with a modern beat,” says Yosef Zev. “The song is connecting and empowering. I am sure that the audience will connect to the depth of it, which expresses the prophecy of Isaiah, as we live and see the process of its fulfillment with our own eyes, when the streets of Jerusalem fill with hope, joy and gratitude. That’s why we chose to release it on Tu B’Av in honor of Shabbat Nachamu, the “Shabbat of Consolation”, added Yosef Zev.

 

LYRICS 

Isaiah 51:3 

כִּֽי־נִחַ֨ם יְהוָ֜ה צִיֹּ֗ון נִחַם֙ כָּל־חָרְבֹתֶ֔יה 

וַיָּ֤שֶׂם מִדְבָּרָהּ֙ כְּעֵ֔דֶן וְעַרְבָתָ֖הּ כְּגַן־יְהוָ֑ה 

 שָׂשֹׂ֤ון וְשִׂמְחָה֙ יִמָּ֣צֵא בָ֔הּ תֹּודָ֖ה וְקֹ֥ול זִמְרָֽה׃ 

 

For Hashem will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her ruins;  

He will make her wilderness like Eden and her wasteland like a garden of Hashem;  

joy and gladness will be found there, thanksgiving and the sound of music.
