    Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah
    (Traditional)
    ______________________

    Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah
    The sweet celebration
    Around the feast we gather
    in complete jubilation

    Many are the reasons for good cheer
    Now that the Season of Lights is here
    Many are the reasons for good cheer
    Now that the Season of Lights is here

    Together we'll weather
    whatever tomorrow may bring
    So hear us rejoicing and merrily voicing
    the Hanukkah song that we sing
    So hear us rejoicing and merrily voicing
    the Hanukkah song that we sing

    Oh Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah
    The Festival of Joy
    A holiday, a jolly day
    for every girl and boy
    Whirling dreidels all week long
    Eating latkes, singing songs
    Whirling dreidels all week long
    Eating latkes, singing songs

    Now light them, tonight then
    The candles all in a row
    Retell the story of God in his glory
    and dance by the flickering glow
    Retell the story and God in his glory
    dance by the flickering glow

    My mom had this song, in yiddish, on a very old album. That's how I'll always hear in in my head.

    And yes, my voice is naturally adapted for Jewish music.

    Chanukah, or Hanukkah, is 8 nights and days, so the last night will be Tuesday.

    I work at a school that is very diversed.

    We have different holiday greetings posted around the school

    Happy Hanukkah
    Merry Christmas
    Feliz Navidad

    etc.,

    we all celebrate

    together
    most importantly
    celebrating the joy of just being together

    wishing everyone
    a season "of love" of family, of tradition

    and freedom

    I enjoy learning from you.

    I really hated that song at first, but I realize he meant well. Unfortunately, most Chanukah songs are either way light--talking about dreidels and food mostly--or rather martial.
