Текст песни Александр Городницкий - Ханука

Planets celestial mechanics
Over the distance the sea is blue.
When the Chanukah candle burns
What are we thinking with you?

Forget worries and rejoice
Over the candles with rainbow fire
That not all light up at once,
And gradually - day after day.

Wake up early in the morning
And listen to the slow surf.
When the Chanukah candle burns
What are we thinking with you?

That we are still far from the end
And the light in the window did not go out,
That the light of a flickering candle
Suddenly connects us.

And hearts are a strange ferment
Leaves us in the fools
When I see a reflection
In your agate pupils.

Promise rest to the wanderer
Any shadow and any house.
When the Chanukah candle burns
What are we thinking with you?
