thing to be a slave is not able to do whatever they want a slave is not able to make their own decisions they have a master or a boss make those decisions for them they are not free and it's a very sad life and we hope hashem doesn't make anybody slaves anymore but we used to be slaves a long time ago to old king parrot and it was not a very happy life at all we worked so hard all day and we were not able to do anything that we wanted to do we weren't even able to serve hashem bang bang bang bang your hammers low bang bang bang give a heavy blow for it's work work work every day and every night for it's work work work when it's dark and when it's lights dig dig dig dig your shovels deep dig dig dig there's no time for sleep for it's work work work every day and every night for it's work work work when it's dark and when it's light saw saw saw saw through the wood make sure the work that you do is good for it's work work work every day and every night for it's work work work when

used to be avadim slaves but now we are free you know one of the names for pesach other than pesach is zeman the time of our freedom so pesach remembers both our slavery but also now our freedom [Music] we were slaves now we are free this is a part of our jewish history we were slaves you and me hashem took us out and now we are free we were slaves you and me but hashem took us out and now we are free [Music] mitzvah [Music] that was a very beautiful song i hope you were able to sing along but you know there's another way to sing avadimayinu i have a friend who is deaf he cannot hear out of his ears his ears just do not work and that's called being deaf and my friend who is deaf taught me how to sing avadim hayinu but without using my voice instead to use my hands to sing avadimayinu this is the sign of in sign language to say slaves of adeem you kind of rub your hands close together that's like your hands are locked up like a slave's hands are tied up that's we're not slaves now we were slaves so you'll take your thumbs and point them behind your back hyenu we or we were so avadim hayinu that's right now to say atabanejorin now we are free you have to take your thumb and your pinkies your thumbs and your pinkies like this and you're going to point them down to say now atta or now so atta and then bene chorin we are free a free person isn't doesn't have his hands tied together they're free they can break their chains or break their whatever's tying their hands together they can break free so it's atta now now we are free so we can sing the song like this [Music]
