The Jews pursued futility and became futile,

The destruction of the beis hamikdash was brutal.

In times of distress, ask the gods you made to save you,

If you pursue the truth, the temple will be rebuilt anew!

Yirmia did not know how to speak,

He foresaw that the Jewish future was bleak.

Yirmia was sent to speak the hard truth,

Hashem remembers us in the days of our youth!

The Jewish people are compared to dew,

Bilaam tried to curse us, but all he said was true.

We were told what is good, but we fell for scams,

Can we thank Hashem with one thousand rams?

Balaam was great but he lacked the humility,

Baal-Peor was worshiped by using the facilities.

We meet a donkey who knows how to converse,

Balaam tries, but the Jews he can't curse!

Yiftach was a ben isha zona,

Throughout his life, he built quite the persona.

Yiftach had an unusual rise to power,

The Jews prevailed when Ammon was devoured!

To Meriam and Aaron we bid farewell,

With Miriam gone, so was the water in the well.

When the Jews complained about food, they were bitten by snakes,

Moshe's anger at the rock was a costly mistake

Shmuel rebukes the people for wanting a king,

Shmuel didn't steal an ox, a donkey, not even one thing.

After a summertime thunderstorm came,

Hashem would not forsake His people for the Sake of His great name!
