Moshe Louk Releases New Single “Kah Dodi”
The song’s lyrics were written by Manor Ben David, with the melody based on a traditional tune. Louk produced the track himself, while the musical arrangement and production were handled by Babi Edri.
Singer and paytan Moshe Louk has released a new single titled “Kah Dodi,” a prayerful piyut built around longing, redemption, and closeness to God.
The song’s lyrics were written by Manor Ben David, with the melody based on a traditional tune. Louk produced the track himself, while the musical arrangement and production were handled by Babi Edri.
Louk said the song felt especially fitting for the current moment, describing it as a piece filled with yearning for God to bring redemption with mercy and speed.
The single continues Louk’s focus on traditional Jewish and Sephardic musical language, blending the world of piyut with contemporary production. His delivery gives the piece a devotional tone, centered less on performance flash and more on prayer, emotion, and the familiar sound of communal Jewish song.
“Kah Dodi” opens with a direct appeal to God, calling on Him as the strength and glory of Israel and asking that He hear the praise and cries of His children. The lyrics continue with a plea for closeness, mercy, and divine attention, using the language of covenant and sanctity.
The release comes as Jewish music continues to draw heavily from older liturgical forms, with artists reworking piyutim and traditional melodies for modern audiences. In that context, Louk’s new single fits into a broader return to songs that feel rooted in the beit knesset, the Shabbat table, and the emotional vocabulary of tefillah.
Credits for the track include lyrics by Manor Ben David, traditional melody, production by Moshe Louk, and musical arrangement and production by Babi Edri.
