We used to celebrate Hanukah when my dad lived here because his whole family is jewish, but now he's taken the one copy of the prayer that we had, and I'd like to continue going with the tradition we've had since before I was born. Thanks!!!

I don't have it to send to you, but you might try this.....do a search on the internet for a site called "The Ancient Hebrew Research Center"......Jeff (the site admin) can probably supply you with what you need.

Ok, we're religous Jews and celebrate Chanuka every year, so you can trust me to give you a good answer ;).

There are 3 blessings; one that you say ONLY on the first night (the first one):

1. (Only on the first night) Baruch ata Ado nai, Elo hei nu melech ha'olam, asher kideshanu bemitzvotav, vetzivanu, lehadlik ner chanuka.

2. Baruch ata Ado nai, Elo hei nu melech ha'olam, she'asa nisim laavotainu bayamim hahem bizman hazeh.

3. Baruch ata ado - nai, elo - heinu melech ha'olam, shehechiyanu vekiyemanu vehigiyanu lizman hazeh.

Then there's another paragraph (song) that you say after this once you light them. It goes:

Hanerot halalu anu madlikin. Al hatshu'ot ve'al hanisim, ve'al ve'al hanifla'ot, she'asita la'avoteinu bayamim hahem bizman hazeh. Al yedei kohanecha hakdoshim. Vekol shmonat yemei chanuka, hanerot halalu kodesh hem, ve'ein lanu reshut lehishtamesh bahen. Ela lir'otan bilvad, kedei lehodot, ulehalel leshimcha hagadol. Al nisecha ve'al nifle'otecha, ve'al yeshu'otecha.

The Prayer for
Chanukah Candle-Lighting

Every night during Chanukah, when the candles are lit this is the prayer that is recited
Ba-ruch ata, A-do-nai E-lo-hei-nu, me-lech ha-o-lam, a-sher ki-de-sha-nu be-mits-vo tov, ve-tsi-va-nu le-had-lik neir shel Chan-nu-kah.
