On the lips of the intelligent
Wisdom is found
And in keeping of silence
The mind is sound
A treasure jewel
Is a word to the wise
As an adorning jewel
Between the eyes
Written as a reminder
On tables of the heart
Is the words of Torah
In the hidden parts
Bound as a sign upon the hands
A covenant to keep is His commands
Protect the commandments
With all your strength
And they shall guard
Your steps at length
For the law is a lamp
The commandments a light
And those who watch over them
Shall be called the Upright.
