Translation:Chanukah, Oh Chanukah
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 Sevivonim to play with, and levivot 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. | |
Information:Popular English-language Chanukah song, adapted from Yiddish song Khanike, oy Khanike.
