With Elul upon us and the goal to work on bridging our relationship with Hashem before Rosh Hashana, this song expresses everything that our connection with Hashem should be. I reached out to the composer, Jared Lazarus of Derech Achim (who also composed the well-known Piaseczna Nigun) to give his beautiful insight into this breathtaking song. מים רבים לא יכלו לכבות את האהבה ונהרות לא ישטפוה אני לדודי ודודי לי הרעה בשושנים – Many waters cannot extinguish the love, nor can rivers flood it. I am to my beloved and my beloved is to me; He browses among the lilies.
