O Hanukah!

The Maccabees were stronger
Wouldn't take it any longer
Their temples were defiled
Surrounded by false idols
Judah called out to his people
To rise above the evil

O Hanukah, O Hanukah, a celebration
Exodus from slavery, emancipation
In the festival of lights find the beauty of
Hanukah

They lit up the Menorah
Devoted to the Torah
With just enough for one day
A miracle on display
With faith renewed proclaiming
The legacy remaining

So light up your lights
And celebrate
Think of the fight
And all that was saved
Live and rejoice
Because you are free today
