AL HANISIM


 

Al hanissim, ve'al hapurkan,
Ve'al hag'vurot ve'al hateshu'ot,
Ve'al hamilchamot she'asita la'avoteinu
Bayamim haheim, bazman hazeh.

IN HONOR OF THE MIRACLES


In honor of the miracles and deliverance,
Heroic deeds and salvation wrought
And wars You fought, for our fathers,
In days of yore and in present time.
