OCHO KANDELIKAS (Ladino = Judeo-Spanish)
Flory Jagoda (1923 – 2021)

Hanukka linda sta aki,

O - Una kandelika, dos kandelikas, trez kandelikas,

EIGHT LITTLE CANDLES


Beautiful Hanukkah is here,
eight candles for me. (×2)

O - One little candle, two little candles, three little candles,
four little candles, five little candles, six little candles,

with happiness/joys and pleasure. (×2)

Little pastries I'll eat,
with little almonds and honey. (×2)
