As usual, my Ladino is great, my Hebrew is not. Do you think Ladino will make a comeback? Let’s hope so.
Watch these kiddies singing this beautiful Ladino folk song. Check out the lyrics below.
Durme, durme hijiko de madre,
Durme, durme s’in ansio y dolor;
Sienti joya palavrikas de tu madre.
Las palavras di Shema Yisrael
Durme, durme hijiko de madre,
Con hermozura de Shema Yisrael.
And in English.
I agree, and Ladino songs specially rock…

My friend Shirley Behar, who learned Ladino from her Turkish Jewish immigrant parents in Detroit, would want nothing better than to see this language make a comeback.

Google has a funny sense of humor when it comes to the advertisements they put up on my blog. I have no control over them.

You can also sing Bendigamos ((1), (2)) after meals; I know I do, from memory too!
