8. Hāle Hāle Yǝbārkǝwo

A prayer performed during the Səgd and in the service for the Seventh Sabbath. The melody in this recording is the one specific to the Səgd. The text shows some similarities with another piece (CD I, 8, Hāle hāle yǝbārkǝwo) which appears to be equally common to Səgd and to the Seventh Sabbath.

This piece is very similar to its counterpart (CD I, no. 8) in terms of its melodic material, its antiphonal form, and the number of verses. The two prayers differ only in their respective pivotal notes.
