Flames kindled
This Shabbat-Hanukah night
Hanukah wicks flickering
Casting street-light
Shabbat flames dancing
Illuminating soul-sight
Hanukah – God descends
Shabbat – Jews ascend
Claiming every n’shamah
Sparks seeking light
Shabbat-Hanukah flames kindled
Lifting Israel
Burning bright
Glorious night!
