It's the Kaddish prayer,  mourning the dead. " May His great Name grow exalted and sanctified"

(Not sure about the funky spelling though :-), makes googling impossible, must be different method of conversion to our alphabet )

Cheers mate! :pint: A mourning prayer does indeed make sense. Yeah I googled every word separate and was surprised that I got exactly zero hits :-).

One question though, is it Yiddish or Hebrew? :inquisitive:


Aramaic :-)
