 Struggling with Afikomen? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

It's Chol Hamoed Pesach, Wednesday night
Right before Yom Tov a Shidduch was made
Choson and Kallah, the happiest pair in the world

Together, the two of them drive down the road
Chatting and dreaming about their bright future
Who would have believed that
This is where everything would be shattered?

The world was darkened by the horrible accident
The Choson and Kallah were killed together instantly
Thousands of Jews mourned this terrible tragedy
Prepared for the Chupa, but off to a funeral instead

The father is crying along with everyone else
Creator in heaven, whatever you do is good!
No, I don't understand, but this is how a Jew lives
But today is Pesach, and you know the custom
The children sneak and steal the Afikomen
And after the father asks them to return it
Then the children can request a present in exchange

Father in heaven, so sudden, so quick
You're reclaiming your Afikomen, my child!
I'm giving the it back
With hot tears streaming down my face

I watched it carefully, and I understand it's for the good
If you want it back so soon
I'm returning my sweet Afikomen into your hands
Now, I would like to request my gift in return

Heaven and earth are all watching and listening
What will this father ask for in return?
For such an Afikomen he can ask for anything!

He cries - Master of the world, I'm returning my Chosson
But we do not have enough Shidduchim in Klal Yisroel
I'm begging from you to unite 10,000 Chossonim and Kallahs

Everyone is shocked and amazed by this request
He's not asking for himself, he's asking for Klal yisroel
People have been focused on this goal, working hard to make it happen
And since then there's been a Chuppah almost every week!

The father is crying along with everyone else
Creator in heaven, whatever you do is good!
No, I don't understand, but this is how a Jew lives
But today is Pesach, and you know the custom
The children sneak and steal the Afikomen
And after the father asks them to return it
Then the children can request a present in exchange

How many Yiddishe households have already been established
Generations of children, an entire world!
It's impossible to measure the nachas, how holy and pure

That one Chosson and Kallah, above us in heaven
Together with the Creator they stand
Father, I thank you for this present of mine
The most beautiful Afikomen that can ever be

The father he stands and he raises his hands
He says Aibishter I don't need to understand
I'm a Jew, I'm your child, I have faith, my Emunah is strong

We can't see through the 'nistar' (Hidden) to see the full picture
Only you can determine what's right
I accept your decision to reclaim your Afikomen that night
And I thank you for all the Shidduchim you helped us unite
Every Shidduch will add to the zchusim we send all the time
