מָעוֹז צוּר | Maoz Tsur (trans. by Frederick de Sola Mendes 1914)

Contributed on: 29 Nov 2021 by Frederick de Sola Mendes | Mordecai ben Yitsḥok ha-Levi | Isaac Gantwerk Mayer (transcription & naqdanut) | ❧

A singable translation of Maoz Tsur by the great ḥakham Frederick de Sola Mendes, here transcribed from the Union Hymnal (CCAR 1914), hymn 190. The translation largely reflects the Hebrew, omitting two verses — the final (and according to some, last added) verse, and the fourth verse about Purim and Haman. . . .
