Text

(ג:ו) מִ֣י זֹ֗את עֹלָה֙ מִן־הַמִּדְבָּ֔ר.

(ב:ח) ק֣וֹל דּוֹדִ֔י הִנֵּה־זֶ֖ה בָּ֑א מְדַלֵּג֙ עַל־הֶ֣הָרִ֔ים מְקַפֵּ֖ץ עַל־הַגְּבָעֽוֹת׃

(ב:ו) שְׂמֹאלוֹ֙ תַּ֣חַת לְרֹאשִׁ֔י וִימִינ֖וֹ תְּחַבְּקֵֽנִי׃

(3:6) Who is she that comes up from the desert?

(2:8) Hark! My beloved!

There he comes,

leaping over mountains,

bounding over hills.

(2:6) His left hand was under my head, and

his right arm embraced me.

More than the melodies! At Nava Tehila, we've developed chant-based prayer services that are inclusive, ecstatic, and transformative. Ready to bring this musical prayer method to your community? Check out our tutorials.

Kavvanot

In the Nava Tehila method, kavvanot — intentions for inner engagement with the words of prayer — are developed through close attention to the language of the psalms: Pshat, Midrash, and Kabbalistic and Hasidic illumination.
