Khanuke

Traditionnel, arrangements Christophe Hoarau, Paul Mindy
Interprète Esther Bluwol

Oh Chanukkah, oh Chanukkah, what a beautiful celebration
Joyful and gay, there is nothing to match it
Every night we play with dreydls
And eat steaming hot latkes

Quickly, children, light
The small slender candles
Say “Praise God!”
For his “miracles”
And let the dancing begin

O khanuke, o khanuke, a yontef a sheyner
A lustiker, a freylekher, nito nokh azoyner
Ale nakht in dreydlekh shpiln mir
Zudik-heyse latkes est on a shir

Geshvinder, tsint kinder
Di dininke likhtelekh on
Zogt al-hanisim
Loybt got far di nisim
Un kumt gikher tantsn in kon
