This is an archive of prayers and songs written for, or relevant to, Rosh Ḥodesh Nisan, the first month in the Jewish calendar.

In the Northern Hemisphere of planet Earth, Nisan marks the beginning of the Spring season, the end of the wet season and the onset of the “dry” season. Rosh Ḥodesh Nisan also coincides with Rosh Hashanah la-Melakhim, the New Year’s Day for Sovereigns (Kings & Queens) — marking the beginning of the year of many historic secular calendars including the Jewish calendar.
