Layehudim

לַיְּהוּדִים הָיְתָה אוֹרָה וְשִׂמְחָה וְשָׂשׁוֹן וִיקַר כֵּן תִּהְיֶה לָנוּ תִּהְיֶה לָנוּ תִּהְיֶה לָנוּ

Layehudim hayetah orah vesimkhah vesason vikar. (2x)
Ken tihyeh lanu, tihyeh lanu, tihyeh lanu

The Jews of old had light, and happiness and joy and love — may it be so for us!

Esther 8:16
