Todah, just won it I see it, I spin it, a gimmel, I got it A gimmel, I got it. (4x) No shins, no nuns, no heys, just gimmels I see it, I spin it, a gimmel... We’re singin’ to ya ‘Cause the Maccabees would study the Torah Now we put the candles in the menorah And we all gotta say the blessings We’ll light ‘em for ya And we got a lot of gelt on the table Doesn’t matter, ‘cause we’ll beat you at dreidel And the sufganiyot are tempting These lights will never shine too much Our people don’t give up Dispel the dark with light It lasted eight nights It lasted eight days And now, we gotta light it left to right Lightin’ candles eight nights Add a candle each day And my menorah, it's gettin’ lit from left to right Antiochus told us We couldn’t pray like before But then Judah, and his brothers Wouldn’t take anymore ‘Cause they weren't afraid to die in the fight God stretched out His hand as they showed their heart Then the oil lasted for eight nights Now we celebrate ‘cause it's Chanukah This is the part when the War of Judea Made us stronger than we’d been before This is the part when the Maccabees Made Assyrian oppression no more This is the part where we light the menorah Just like in all those years before This is the part we were made free And that's why we sing “Maoz Tzur”
