Hanukkah lights shining bright,
Miracles of the heart,
Remembering the fight for religious freedom,
Courage from the start.
The odds were overwhelming,
But the Maccabees won the day.
So we honor the brave Jewish heroes,
As we celebrate and pray.
Spin the dreidel.
Light the Menorah.
Have a latke or two.
Eight days of celebration,
I'm so proud to be a Jew.
