Translation: The little sister – her prayers she prepares and proclaims her praises. Please, heal her ailments. Let the year and its curses conclude!
With pleasant words she calls upon You, and with song and raises, for such befits You. Why do you avert Your eyes? Look! Enemies devour her heritage! Let the year and its curses conclude!
Tend Your sheep that the lions dispersed, and pour Your wrath upon those who say 'Destroy'. Your right hand’s foundation-vine they have breached and plucked [its fruit] not even leaving her tiny grapes. Let the year and its curses conclude!
When will You raise up Your daughter from the pit; and from the dungeon, [will You] break her yoke? May You act wondrously when You go forth like a hero, to bring an end and conclusion to her ailments. Let the year and its curses conclude!
Be strong and rejoice, for the plunder is ended; place hope in the Rock and keep the covenant. You will ascend to Zion to these words: Pave! Pave her paths. Let the year and its blessings begin!
—R’ Abraham ben Ishaq ha-Hazan of Girona (Catalonia/Spain), 13th century

Translation: Resplendent and glorious, creator of the gauzy sky and the earth below. Who is like You? Revealer of the profound, speaker of righteousness. Who is like You? Garbed in splendor, without equal. Whois like You? Raising the humble, gracious to those in poverty. Who is like You? Clear-sighted, dwelling in the heavens. Whois like You? Subduing sin, attired in justice. Whois like You? Sovereign over all, wondrous and sublime. Who is like You? Upholder of the falling, answering the oppressed. Who is like You? Redeemer and savior, pushing forward powerfully. Who is like You? Close to those who call out, motherly and gracious. Who is like You? Who dwells in the high places, supporting the innocent. Who is like You? —Translation adapted from Rabbi Irwin Keller |
