May your eyes sparkle with the light of Torah,
and your ears hear the music of its words.
May the space between each letter of the scrolls
bring warmth and comfort to your soul.
May the syllables draw holiness from your heart,
and may this holiness be gentle and soothing
to you and all God’s creatures.
May your study be passionate,
and meanings bear more meanings
until life itself arrays itself to you
as a dazzling wedding feast.
And may your conversation
even of the commonplace,
be a blessing to all who listen to your words
and see Torah on your face.
