Guard our going out and our safe return – Give us life, and give us peace
U’shmor tzeiteinu – u’vo’einu – l’chayim ul’shalom
Hmm-ma-mah-mah way-oh oh-ooh-oh

This chant is from the nighttime liturgy – a prayer for a safe return home – This was written in honor of the 291 teen girls from Chibok Nigeria who were abducted from their school dorm rooms while studying for their physicals final exams and still today are enslaved by Boko Haram – not yet returned home.
