Translated lyrics
(A singable English version:) Had He brought all, brought all of us, brought all of us out from Egypt, then it would have been enough. Oh, dayenu. Chorus: Da-da-yeinu_____, da-da-yeinu_____, da-da-yeinu_____, dayeinu, dayeinu, dayeinu. (repeat) Had He given, given to us, given to us all the Sabbath, then it would have been enough. Oh, dayenu. Chorus Had He given, given to us, given to us all the Torah, then it would have been enough. Oh, dayenu. Chorus
Notes
This traditional Passover song is over a thousand years old. The Hebrew lyrics mean that even if He (God) had only brought us out of Egypt, it would have been enough for us. The second and third verses add that even if He had only given the Sabbath or the Torah, it would have been enough for us.
