Wedding ḥaduyya. The first letter of the second word of each verse is in alphabetical order.

Yosef, Yehuda and Uri Cohen sing in a responsorial manner: Uri Cohen begins, and his two cousins respond. They sing the verses that begin with the first three letters of the alphabet to the ḥaduyya melody, repeating each verse, and then proceed at once to the hallel.
