Additional lyrics by MBD and Moshe Kravitsky.
A humble philanthropist and father of ten, Sholom Mordechai could have built himself an estate, taken extravagant vacations and bought his children all the latest trends and gadgets. Instead, he chose to support struggling institutions and individuals, fund a soup kitchen and open his home to those in need.
Sholom Mordechai is a righteous man who made a mistake, and that is something everyone can relate to. Sholom Mordechai must pay a price for his mistake, but 27 years incarceration, a virtual life sentence for the 51 year old man, is excessive and unfair for a case where no one was hurt, and no one is in danger. The courts need to take into consideration the life that Sholom Mordechai lead, his legendary kindness and generosity, his wife and ten children who need their husband and father at home, and others who did the same bank defrauding and were sentenced to only a few months in prison.
Unity for Justice has united 30 Jewish musicians in a single musical production to promote universal unity amongst Jewish and secular communities, in the hope and belief that unity and togetherness will raise public awareness for Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin’s case, and increase donations to help fund his legal team, who are now working to appeal Judge Linda Reade’s ruling.

Oldie of the Week ~ Kad Yasvin - 1969
Presenting Old Jewish Musical Jewels (O.J.M.J) which because of their age are not very well known to the younger generation.
The song will first be posted here on the main page and remain for approximately a week (we try) on the right column above the three featured videos of the week.
The ninth song in this series features the song "Kad Yasvin" from the album "Cantor David Werdyger sings Melodies of Camp Kol-Ree-Nah" accompanied by the orchestra and the camp choir. Musical director, Yaakov Goldstein. The album was released in 1969.
Soloists are, Mordechi Werdyger AKA MBD (pictured left, early 1970's), his brother child soloist Mendy Werdyger and their father David Werdyger, Tzum Langer Yuhren.
Popular belief is that these words are from the Zohar and the Tune is from the Chazon Ish.
In the words written on the album cover:
"Words of the Zohar Hakodosh set to the music by the sainted Chazon Ish, who fittingly portrayed its deep meaning."
However I've heard that many have failed to find these exact words written in the Zohar. Some are adamant that it is in the Zohar, perhaps in the Hahsmatos, while others says only its concept is form the Zohar (זהר במדבר דף קיח ע"א).
Also regarding the composition of the song, some say that it actually was not composed by the Chazon Ish himself but rather by someone else and the Chazon Ish liked it very much so it became known as his song. Similar to some Negunim of Rebbes.
They sang this song at the Lubavitcher Rebbe's Farbrengen in Tishrei, (i think Simchas Torah) 5722 (1961) and i heard from someone who was there that the Rebbe was very serious and Fardveikut.
Lyrics:
כד יתבון ישראל ועוסקין בשמחת התורה
קודשא ברוך הוא אומר לפמליא דיליה
חזו בני חביבי
דמשתכחין בצערא דילהון ועוסקין בחדותא דילי
[Zohar Hakodosh (see above)]
English Translation:
When the Jewish people immerse themselves in the joy of stydying Torah , the the Holy One Blessed is He, Says to all His heavenly hosts: Look! look at at my beloved children as they forget their own sufferings and immerse themselvs in my loving Torah.
Composed by: The Chazon Ish (see above).
Soloist: Mordechai Ben David, (Child Soloist) Mendy Werdyger and Reb David Werdyger, (Pictured above right, mid 1970's).

MBD Fail
The King of Jewish music, Mordechai Ben David, attempts to imitate his fellow super star Avraham Fried at a December concert in 1985. I think this should explain why Mordechai didn't imitate Avremel on HASC 5 when they did the Memory Lane medley!
I don't think Avremel would do any better if he tried imitating MBD, but it seems he at least knew better!
