As we get out our Chanukkias and begin to celebrate Chanukkah - TopicsExpress



          

As we get out our Chanukkias and begin to celebrate Chanukkah tonight, the Feast of Dedication, often referred to as the Festival of Lights, I wanted to post this lovely rendition of a piece we sang at our Chanukkah concert on Sunday, O Ir Kleye Likhtelekh. This means Oh, you tiny candles. It is a beautiful, very plaintive melody and the Yiddish lyrics tell of the hardships of the Jewish people and the oppression by their enemies, the battle and the victory and the reclaiming of the Temple afterwards.
