From a Poem by Aileen Fisher:

Light the first of eight tonight,
the farthest candle to the right,
light the first and second too,
when tomorrow’s day is through.

CHORUS:
Then light three and then light four,
ev’ry dusk light one candle more,
‘till all eight burn bright and high,
honoring a day gone by.

(repeat chorus)

When the temple was restored,
rescued from the Syrian Lord,
then an eight day feast proclaimed,
the festival of lights well-named, la la la la.

(CHORUS)

Then light three and then light four,
ev’ry dusk light one candle more,
‘till all eight burn bright and high,
honoring a day gone by.
