My name is King Cyrus, my order I give,You Jews can go back to your homeTo build your holy temple againIn the land of Palestine.We've sung and danced o'er the hot rocky roadsBack to Eretz Yisroel's landWe worked with plow and rake and hoeAnd we blessed the works of our handsMy name is Ezra the Teacher manI brought my scroll book alongI brought my flock to YisroelFrom that land called BabylonI'll read you my Talmud Torah bookAnd the prophet's dreams to youAnd you'll be fertile and multiplyIf you keep your Torah trueMy name is Alexander the GreatMore than half of this wide world is mineCome stand around, my servants allI'm wrapped on my bed here to dieAs the King of Syria and PalestineAntiochus the Fourth, you'll standTo kill the Jews if they refuseTo worship our idols and godsMy name is Hannah, my first born sonNow stands before this kingGuilty of keeping the Sabbath lawsBy the soldiers I see him slainIt's one by one my seven sonsIn front of my eyes cut downFor keeping to the Torah lawsI pay with my warm blood nowMy name is Mattathias, I've got five sonsIn Modin City we dwellThey tried to make me bow down to their godsTwo of the King's flunkeys I killedA hundred or more who'll fight to be JewsDid come to these hills with meOn my death bed your leader I'll name'Tis Judah, the MacabeeMy name is Judah, the MacabeeBy the name of the hammer I'm calledWe'll pray to God before every fightTill all of our enemies fallAppolonius, the Governor, this day I killedAnd his army we did bustSome few of his soldiers run away in the windBut most we've dropped dead in the dustSyron is my name, from Syria cameTo destroy that fool MacabeeMy army was great, his army was smallBut he somehow did win over meTo deliver the many to the hands of his fewFor God this is no trick at allIn a few short hours my army did breakAnd we flooded this valley with bloodMy name is Lysias, I dreamed up a planTo burn the Jews tents as they sleptWhen I got there, their tents were all bareAnd the Macabee's army had leftHe stormed my own camp as my soldiers did sleepAnd he killed several thousand in fearMy elephants, my horsemen, my footsoldiers, allJudah hammered them down from the rearMy name is Jerusalem where Judah came backTo build up my Temple once moreTo cut down the weeds and thorny brushThat grows 'round my windows and doorsWhole stones, whole stones, we'll build and prayTo God as a wholehearted JewGod's love the hateful many did placeIn the hands of a God loving fewWe found in our temple a little oil jugJust enough for the lamps for one nightThat one little jug burned Eight whole daysAnd it kept our new temple in lightEight candles we'll burn and a Ninth one tooEvery New Year that comes and goesWe'll think of the many in the hands of the fewAnd thank God we are seeds of the Jews
