Some days this captures the mood.

How do you know / Tzipporah

In a dream of a dark room lit by candlelight
In an empty house in the dead of night
My ancestors came to me one by one

Slowly, they came into view
Familiar faces, faces that were new
Recent and from times long gone

Some had dark skin, some had skin that was light
Some wore ‘hatan’ some had ‘peyot’
They asked what troubled my mind
I told them what had become of my home

And I said, “How do you know when it’s time to leave?
What are the signs that you need to flee?
How do you find the strength to leave your home
And everything you’ve ever known?
How do you know when it’s time to leave?”
