Hanukkah Blessings Lyrics & Video

Barenaked Ladies See albums and popular songs

How lucky are we that we

Have lights so that we can see

All though the day is done

What a miracle that a spark

Lifts these candles out of the dark

Every evening one by one

Until the end of Hanukkah

Of Hanukkah

With the jingle bells and the toys

And the TV shows and the noise

It’s easy to forget

At the end of the day

Our whole family will say

These words for Hanukkah:

Barukh Atah

ADONAI Elohaynu Melekh h'olom

asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav v'tzivanu

l'hadlik nehr shel hannukah

We light the candles for Hanukkah

For Hanukkah

We remember how Maccabees

Fought so all of us could be free

So we celebrate

On this festival of the lights

There’s a joyful time every night

Where we illuminate

The candles of Hanukkah

Of Hanukkah

Barukh atah ADONAI

Elohaynu Melekh ha’olom

She'asah neesim l’avotaynu

bayamim hahem ba'zman hazeh

Hanukkah

Hanukkah
