Don’t be late!We’re getting set to celebrate! Polishing the Menorah Rub-a-dub up Rub-a-dub down ‘Til our menorah Shines like a crown. Colored Candles Red as a fire truck, blue as the sky,Yellow as wings on a butterfly,Green as a grasshopper, pink as a bow,Orange as apricots, white as snow.Pick the candles you like the bestTo light tonight. We’ll save the rest. First Night Now the sun has gone awayAnd stars are coming out to play—It’s time to start our holiday! The First Candle Outside there’s snowy blow-y weather,But here at home we’re snug together—Daddy, Baby, Grandpa, Brother,Sister holding hands with Mother—All watching on this special nightAs Grandma sets one flame alight. The Ninth Candle The shammes candle stands up straight,A servant and quite proud of it.He always is the first one litAnd then he lights the other eight. Second Night We’ll choose two candles,Light the menorah,Turn up the musicAnd dance the hora. Hanukkah Rock Sway to the music,Bounce to the beat,Feel the rockin’ rhythmIn your feet, feet, feet,Give a little shimmy,Prance a little prance,Whirl around and twirl aroundAnd dance, dance, dance.
