Shahar is a morning prayerbook in vernacular Portuguese prepared in 1910 by Artur Carlos de Barros Basto under his Hebrew name, Abraham Israel Ben-Rosh. This is the second edition or printing of the prayerbook, under the auspices of the Instituto Oryamita Do Porto, published in 1920. This is the poem “פעלד־מעסטען” by Morris Rosenfeld (1862-1923) written before 1898. We have transcribed the poem as it was published in Rosenfeld’s collection of poems Gezamelṭe lieder (1906) pp. 135-136. The poem was romanized and translated into English by Leo Wiener and published under the title, “The Measuring of the Graves” in Songs from the Ghetto (1898), pp. 46-49. A rhyming translation by Rose Pastor Stokes & Helena Frank under the title, “Measuring of the Graves” was published in Songs of Labor and Other Poems (1914), pp. 70-71. If you know the date of the earliest publication of this prayer, please leave a comment or contact us.
