הפטורה: וְאִשָּׁה - בְּנָהּ וַתֵּצֵא

The haftarah [for Parshas Vayeira] begins Ve’ishah and ends bnah vateitzei (II Melachim 4:1-37).

דִי נְשָׁמָה וואַרט אוֹיבּעֶן

In the spiritual realm, the soul awaits

אוֹיף דעֶם זְמַן

the time

וועֶן זִי וועֶט זוֹכֶה זַיין אַראָפּגעֶהן אִין אַ גוּף

when it will be granted the merit of descending into a body,

וַוייל דִי נְשָׁמָה פִילט

because the soul appreciates

וואָס זִי קעֶן אוֹיפטאָן זַייעֶנדִיק דאָ לְמַטָה

what it can accomplish down here [on the material plane].

זִי קעֶן קוּמעֶן צוּ דעֶם לְהִתְעַנֵג עַל הֲוָיָ

It can arrive at a true delight in G‑dliness.

אִיז אוֹיף וועֶן לֵייגט מעֶן עֶס אָפּ

How long, then, are we going to postpone this delight?1
