Singer Chaim Horowitz has released a new single titled "Mama Ba'at" (Mother Cries) in commemoration of the yahrzeit of Rachel Imeinu (Mother Rachel), observed on the 11th of Cheshvan. The song features a collaboration with legendary composer Yitzchak Hanig, aiming to convey a profound message of prayer and hope.

The track captures the eternal plea of Rachel Imeinu, who is depicted as an intercessor before God for the people of Israel. The lyrics express a collective entreaty: "Mama Rochel, pray for us, ask God to bring the redemption and return us home to Jerusalem," reflecting a belief in the imminent rebuilding of the Third Temple.

Yitzchak Hanig composed the melody and also handled the production and musical arrangement alongside Avrohomi Longe. The Yiddish lyrics were written by Yitzchak Longe. The combination of Horowitz's vocal power and Hanig's musical composition creates a unique emotional depth for the song.

This release is part of a recent surge of musical projects within the Hasidic and Jewish music world. Other recent singles dedicated to Rachel Imeinu include "Rachel" by Nati Shevkes, and "Ya S'got" by Oshi Rosenbaum. Avrohomi Longe mixed the track, and AIM Creatives designed the cover art. The song reinforces the special bond between the Jewish people and Rachel Imeinu, emphasizing her continued prayers for her children.
