Hayo, Haya - Peter, Paul and Mary

Hayo, haya, melech rasha, melech rasha

Charbo chada, umlutasha, umlutasha

Mihu?

antiochus, antiochus

Let us remember reign of terror, reign of terror

King who murdered pain forever, pain forever

Who then?

antiochus, antiochus

Antiochus, antiochus

The blood he spilled, jerusalem, jerusalem

So many killed, gone all of them, gone all of them

Who then?

antiochus, antiochus

Our hearts he broke, he burned the torah, burned the torah

Ash and smoke, the crushed menorah, crushed menorah

Who then?

antiochus, antiochus

Arise our hero, judah save us, judah save us

Prize so dear, the vict’ry gave us, freedom gave us

Who then?

macabeus, macabeus

Oh sing our songs and praise the torah, praise the torah

Right the wrongs and light menorah, light menorah

When then?

chanukah, chanukah
