Greetings > Hanukkah > Hanukkah Candles My Hanukkah Candles
Eight little candles, All in a line. Eight little candles Glitter and shine. Eight little candles Eight little flame, Whispers a legend Of honor and fame. Eight little candles Bashfully hide The soul of people Its hope and its pride. Eight little candles Spraklets of gold, Stories of battles, And heroes of a old. Heroes undaunted, And noble, and true. Heroes who knew How to dare and to do. Heroes who tought The ages to be That man can be brave, And that man should be free. Modest and frail Is their lights, yet it cheers A people in exile Two thousands years Eight little candles Their guttering gleams Speak to my heart In a language of dreams. Light to my eye Is their smile and their cheer, Sweet to my ear Is their whisper to hear. Courage but courage, Maccabee's brave son, Fight for light And the battle is won. Poem by: Philip Raskin
