Chad Gadya (Reverse!)

Chad gadyaaaa, chad gadyaaa

Then came the Holy One, blessed be He!

And destroyed the angel of death

Then came the angel of death and slew the butcher

Then came the butcher and killed the ox

Then came the ox and drank the water

That quenched the fire that burned the stick

That beat the dog that bit the cat

That ate the kid

My father bought for two zuzim

Chad gadya, chad gadya
