I am the afikoman

English Lyrics

I'm over here come find me, I'm hiding in the books,
I see you getting closer but I can't get you to look,
You do not seem to see me but I'm looking right at you.
I am the afikoman and hiding's what I do.

Someone takes the middle matza and they break it into two,
I become one half of it and I am hidden far from you.
They wrap me in a napkin so I don't get crumbs around,
Then they buy me back after I've been found.

I'm over here, I'm hiding, you'll find me if you try,
I see you getting closer, but then you go right by.
You do not seem to see me but I'm looking right at you.

I am the afikoman and hiding's what I do.

I am the afikoman and hiding's what I do.

Translation

The name of the song is, "The Afikoman Song".
