Lighting The Menorah

We’ll decorate tonight
We’ll make it blue and white
My shiny gelt is sweet
And here’s my dreidel

We’ll open up the door
Set the chairs and sweep the floor
And put the latkes warm
Out on the table

Hanukkah

Lighting the menorah
Hanukkah

Each night of Hanukkah
I remember what it’s for

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 

Each candle has a night
To be first to shine a light
As the blessings are said
And we sing out our songs

The helper candle’s name
Is the “shamash” and with its flame
It gives its light to others
While its own remains strong

Each night of Hanukkah
I remember what it’s for, on

Each night of Hanukkah
I remember what it’s for

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 

I remember what it’s for
I remember what it’s for
And the world lights up
A little more
