Editing Nigun Ka'ayal Ta'arog (Tzemach Tzedek)

{{music}}
The Nigun Ka'ayal Ta'arog is a devekus nigun that was frequently sung by the Tzemach Tzedek.

King David's song in Tehillim, "As a deer yearns for streams of water, so does my soul yearn for You, Elokim," illustrates the great thirst of the nefesh elokis (divine soul) for a drop of Elokus while imprisoned in the physical and material body.

This nigun is number 14 in Sefer HaNigunim.

== Lyrics ==
Like a deer that yearns for streams of water, So does my soul yearn for You, Elokim; My soul thirsts for Elokim, For the living G-d, when will I come And appear before Elokim<ref>Tehillim 42:2-3.</ref>?
