Re: Song Translation

[Dan Jacobs <dan...>]

Haneros Halolu - Part of the ritual of lighting candles on Channukah, this
is chanted or sung as the candles are being light.

Reb Dovid'l - Bouncy Yiddish song about a guy named Dovid'l (david)

Off the top of my head I can't provide translations but I'm sure other
people can.

Once again, the musical score for Reb Dovid'l (by Zilberts) can be found
on the LJMC website.  http://www.ljmc.org.uk/

+ I also have an arrangement of Haneros Halolu - also in capella format -
but it's not on the website, let me know if you want me to e-mail it to
you.

Regards,

Dan
