    Miriam, Oh, Miriam
    Why did you go so soon?

    Walking on the Avenue, I’m walking in a swoon.
    I grab my phone to call you as I often do
    when things get rough, and I need to talk to you.

    I type your name, I see your face, my limbs turn into goo…
    Miriam, my Miriam how could this all be true?

    You’ve answer that last call,
    the one Hashem called out to you
    to go back home to the World that’s always true.

    From up above you look below
    at Michoel and all your crew.
    All your children love you
    and you love them too.

    Now you’re standing by Hashem
    free from any suffering
    I’m sure you’re working very hard
    Moshiach Now to bring.

    Tracht gut vet zein gut.
    May we all be zoche to the Geula Shalayma now!
