Mah Nishtana

Mah nishtana ha-laila hazeh mikol ha-leilot, mikol ha-leilot?

She-bechol ha-leilot anu ochlin chametz u-matzah, chametz u-matzah.

Ha-laila hazah, ha-laila hazeh, ku-lo matzah. (2x)

She-bechol ha-leilot anu ochlin shear yerakot.

Ha-lailah hazeh, ha-laila hazeh, maror.

She-bechol ha-leilot ein anu matbilin afilu pa-am echat.

Ha-lailah hazeh, ha-lailah hazeh, shetei peamim. (2x)

She-bechol ha-leilot anu ochlin bein yoshvin u-vein mesubin.

Ha-laila hazeh, ha-lailah hazeh, kulanu mesubin.(2x)

Translation

Why is this night different from all other nights?

On all other nights we eat matzah and bread.

This night only matzah

On all other nights we eat all vegetables,

This night, bitter herbs.

On all other nights we don't have to dip even one time

On this night, two times

On all other nights we eat either sitting or leaning.

On this night, we only lean.
