Original lyrics
Aleih neiri, a leih haneir, Haneir chadri, chadri haeir, Aleih neiri, aleih uz'rach, L'yeled kat, l'na'ar rach, L'yeled kat, l'na'ar rach, l'na'ar rach. Rise up, my light, rise up and shine; My candles, glow with light divine. See my Menorah sining in the night, For all the children basking in its light, For all the children in its light, in its light. Aleih neiri, aleih haneir, Haeir chadri, chadri haeir, Hayom li chag a gil es'mach, Aleih neiri, aleih uz'rach, Aleih neiri, aleih uz'rach, uz'rach. Rise up, my light, rise up and shine; My candles, glow with light divine. On Chanuka we celebrate and sing; Our prayers rise, our meloldies take wing, Our prayers rise, come let us sing, let us sing. Aleih neiri, aleih haneir, Ha'eir chadri ha'eir, Al Maccabi b'oz ni-l'cham, Geireish oyeiv ga'al ha'am, Geiresih oyeiv ga'al ha'am, ha'am. Rise up, my light, rise up and shine; My candles, glow with light divine. Come hear the story of Judah Maccabee, The mighty hero who set our people free, The mighty Judah Maccabee, set us free.
