lyrics

Ladino:
Hanukía, bayla mi tía,
Hanuká, bayla mi bavá

Afuera ya sta frío i eskuro –
Largas noches del invierno!
Ma no ulvidemos:
La ora mas eskura
Es para amaneser!
Toda eskurina podemos dezazer
Kon el nombre del Dio!
Ya viene Hanuká!

Al tiempo muy eskuro de los Makabís
Fue el Templo desakrado,
Ma eyos, pokos kon koraje,
Lo rekonsakraron –
Izieron Hanuká!
El alzete de un día ocho días ya turó
Kon el nombre del Dio!
Ya viene Hanuká!


English:
Hanukiya, my aunt is dancing,
Hanukkah, my grandmother’s dancing

Outside it’s cold and dark –
Long nights of winter!
But let us not forget:
The darkest hour
Comes right before the dawn!
All darkness we can dispel
With the name of God!
Hanukkah is coming!

In the very dark time of the Maccabees
The Temple was desecrated,
But they, a few with courage,
Rededicated it -
They made Hanuka!
The oil for one day lasted for eight days
With the name of God!
Hanukkah is coming!
