Matisyahu - Happy Hanukkah Lyrics

Matisyahu – Happy Hanukkah Lyrics

Chorus:
Happy Hanukkah! I wanna give a gift to you
Light up the night, my love shine through
From mount Zion, this is what we do, bring love to you
Happy Hanukkah! I wanna give a gift to you
Light up the night, my love shine through
From mount Zion, this is what we do, bring love to you

Today is the day, tonight is the night
Sunset, twilight at dark come along, take flight
High and twinkling, and swindling and a shooting in the sky
I’m shining, and I’m feeling alright
Light a candle for the one you love
Peace and light from below to above
Eight nights, celebrate till I flying in the sky like a dove
Let me unwind as I light up a flame in the name of the Lion of Judah
Drop like a hammer when I fall like the rain sun shower
Feel the power when I hit like a train

Chorus:
Happy Hanukkah! I wanna give a gift to you
Light up the night, my love shine through
From mount Zion, this is what we do, bring love to you
Happy Hanukkah! I wanna give a gift to you
Light up the night, my love shine through
From mount Zion, this is what we do, bring love to you

To get into the cosmos flows in top
When I write to excite, now I’m fighting back
Intertwined with the divine, it’s a battle to the spine
It’s a battle from the ancient line
Son of King David, Maccabee till the end of time
You’re my light in this hardest time
Yes you bring piece to my mind
Won’t you please let me unwind
As I light up a flame in he name of the Lion of Judah
Drop like a hammer when I fall like the rain sun shower
Feel the power when I hit like a train

Chorus:
Happy Hanukkah! I wanna give a gift to you
Light up the night, my love shine through
From mount Zion, this is what we do, bring love to you
Happy Hanukkah! I wanna give a gift to you
Light up the night, my love shine through
From mount Zion, this is what we do, bring love to you

Celebration, get your hands up high, get your hands up high
Celebration, get your hands up high, get your hands up high
Celebration,
Celebration-bration-bration-bration

Chorus:
Happy Hanukkah! I wanna give a gift to you
Light up the night, my love shine through
From mount Zion, this is what we do, bring love to you
Happy Hanukkah! I wanna give a gift to you
Light up the night, my love shine through
From mount Zion, this is what we do, bring love to you

Celebration, get your hands up high, get your hands up high
Celebration, get your hands up high, get your hands up high
Celebration,
Celebration-bration-bration-bration

  • Dave says:

    Have you ever seen the video clip of this song? I bet you have. Notice that there were several words pronounced by Matisyahu that didn’t seem to match with this lyric.
    First: Instead of “Sons of twilight had done ” he said “Sunset, twilight had back”

    It also looks pretty confusing when it goes to “High and twinkling and swindling and a shooting in the sky.” If you tried to rewind it and listen over and over again, you’ll find that it’s not like what’s written in the line, but it is “High and twinkle and a sprinkle and a shooting in the sky

    I’m sorry though. I just try to give my inputs

    In the …(?) to divine, as it’s a better thing to spine (?)
    Should be
    intertwined with the Divine, it’s a battle to your spine

    So now can ever, maccabee (?) till the end of time
    should be
    Son of King David

    You’re my light in the saddest time
    should be
    You’re my light in this hardest time
