The words 'Chazak, Chazak, venit chazeik' are spoken when a book of the Torah is finished. This adds meaning to the tradition.
Lyrics:
We have come from near and far to raise our voice in song,
And the more we join in the re - frain, the more we feel strong.
Cha-zak, cha-zak, ve-nit cha-zeik.
There is a power in this place and time, it shapes the rest of our lives,
For when we return each year we find a truth we can’t deny.
Be strong, let us strengthen one another.
Be strong, let us celebrate our lives.
Be strong, let us strengthen one another.
Cha-zak, cha-zak, ve-nit cha-zeik.
Cha-zak, cha-zak, ve-nit cha-zeik.
As we sing we link ourselves, to those who came before,
And we’re one with all those yet to come, our strength it will endure.
Be strong, let us strengthen one another.
Be strong, let us celebrate our lives.
Be strong, let us strengthen one another. Cha-zak, cha-zak,
Be strong, let us strengthen one another.
Be strong, let us celebrate our lives.
Be strong, let us strengthen one another. Cha-zak, cha-zak,
Be strong, let us strengthen one another.
Be strong, let us celebrate our lives.
Be strong, let us strengthen one another. Cha-zak, cha-zak,
Be strong, be strong, chazak chazak, v’nit chazeik.
