Hanukkah
Oh Hanukkah, oh Hanukkah the sweet celebration....
chanukah
Yiddish Lyrics
Oh Hanukkah, oh Hanukkah, come light the Menorah,
Let's have a party, we'll all dance the hora.
Gather round the table, we'll give you a treat.
Sevivon to play with, Latkes to eat.
And while we are playing, the candles are burning low.
One for each night, they shed a sweet light, to remind us of days
long ago;
One for each night, they shed a sweet light, to remind us of days
long ago.
Translation
Chanukkah, O Chanukkah
A yontev a sheyner
A lustiger a freylicher
Nito noch azoyner
Ale nacht in dreydl shpiln mir
Zudig heyse latkes esn mir
Geshvinder tsindt kinder
Di dininke lichtelech on
Zogt "al ha-nisim," loybt G-t far di nisim
Un kumt gicher tantsn in kon
