On This Night (ICD Dance Choreograph & Lyrics)

(Video to be added for this dance)

Lyrics:


     On this night, let us light one little candle fire,
Tis a sight, oh so bright, one little candle for Chanukah.
     On this night, let us light two little candle fires,
Tis a sight, oh so bright, two little candles for Chanukah.
     On this night, let us light three little candle fires,
Tis a sight, oh so bright, three little candles for Chanukah.
     On this night, let us light four little candle fires,
Tis a sight, oh so bright, four little candles for Chanukah.
     On this night, let us light five little candle fires,
Tis a sight, oh so bright, five little candles for Chanukah.
     On this night, let us light six little candle fires,
Tis a sight, oh so bright, six little candles for Chanukah.
     On this night, let us light seven little candle fires,
Tis a sight, oh so bright, seven little candles for Chanukah.
     On this night, let us light eight little candle fires,
Tis a sight, oh so bright, eight little candles for Chanukah

                    Eight little candles for Chanukah
