Candles

We begin by lighting the candles to celebrate Passover and, on Friday night, Shabbat.

We say:

Baruch atah adonay, eloheinu melech ha-olam, asher kidshanu b'mitzvotav v'tzivanu l'hadlik ner shel (Shabbat v') Yom Tov.

Thank you, bees, for making the wax to make our candles, and thank you, sun, for giving us light.
