What's up with "Saylu"?

Moydeh Ani Lefunechu vechulu She'Hechzartu Be Nishmusi B'Chemlu Rabu Eminusaychu Saylu


That's how my mom taught it to me. For years now, I have been looking for any source for ending "Moydeh Ani" with "Saylu"- to the point that I have begun doubting whether "Saylu" was my own finishing touch.

As I was re-runing the Munkatcher Rebbe's plea to Yidden in America- I noticed that that's how they said it in Munkatch {4:35/9:14)!



So, who is this "Saylu"? and, What's she doing at the end of Moydeh Aani?

  1. Girls and Boys dancing Hora to a Niggun of Al Yeday Zeh doesnt add up (Boyane Chasidim sing this after Sefiras Haomer to this very day, who knows)

  2. It may be that they read "be-chemloh" together with "raboh" and so "emunosechah" needs "seloh" to make sense...
