Original 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.
Translated lyrics
