Translation

Our Father, our King! Hear our voice:
Our Father, our King! We have sinned before You:
Our Father, our King! Have compassion for us and for our
children and our infants:
Our Father, our King! Of pestilence, and sword, and famine
rid us:
Our Father, our King! Of every oppressor and adversary rid
us:
Our Father, our King! Our Father, our King! Inscribe us in
the book of good life:
Our Father, our King! Anew for us, Anew for us a good year:
Hear our voice, Hear our voice, Hear our voice:
Our Father, our King! Our Father, our King! Anew for us, a
good year:
Our Father, our King! Hear our voice, Hear our voice, Hear
our voice, Hear our voice:

The lyrics of this beautiful High Holidays prayer are here as sung by Barbara Streisand. "Sung during Rosh Ha' Shanah (the Jewish New Year), "Avinu Malkeinu" ("Our Father, Our King") is a supplication to God to treat us with kindness and generosity, even when we haven't always lived up to His ideals for us. The melody I sing here is so beautiful, surely the hand of God touched the composer." More at thissite:
