ADON OLAM	MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE
Adon olam, asher malach, b'terem kol y'tzir nivra. L'et na'asah v'cheftzo kol, azai melech sh'mo nikra. V'acharey kichlot hakol, l'vado yimloch nora. V'hu haya, v'hu hoveh, v'hu yih'yeh b'tifara. V'hu echad, v'eyn sheni l'hamshil lo, l'hachbira. B'li reishit, b'li tachlit, v'lo ha'oz v'hamisrah. V'hu Eli, v'chai go'ali, v'tzur chevli b'et tzarah. V'hu nisi umanos li, m'nat kosi b'yom ekra. B'yado afkid ruchi b'et ishan v'a'irah. V'im ruchi g'viyati, Adonai li v'lo ira.	The Lord of the Universe who reigned before anything was created. When all was made by his will He was acknowledged as King. And when all shall end He still all alone shall reign. He was, He is, and He shall be in glory. And He is one, and there's no other, to compare or join Him. Without beginning, without end and to Him belongs diminion and power. And He is my G-d, my living G-d. to Him I flee in time of grief, and He is my miracle and my refuge, who answers the day I shall call. To Him I commit my spirit, in the time of sleep and awakening, even if my spirit leaves, G-d is with me, I shall not fear.

Italian translation

SIGNOR DEL MONDO

Signor del mondo,
che Regnò prima che tutto sì Creò.
Come Gli Piacque tutto Fé
e da quel giorno è detto il Re.

Poi, quando tutto finirà,
Tremendo, Solo, Regnerà.
E sempre Stato, sempre E
e sempre, in Gloria, Lui Sarà.
