Chad gadya, chad gadya
One only kid! One only kid!
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya

And a cat came and devoured the kid
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya

And a dog came and bit the cat
That had devoured the kid
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya

Then a stick came and smote the dog
Which had bitten the cat that had devoured the kid
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya

Then a fire came and burned the stick
Which had smitten the dog that had bitten the cat
That had devoured the kid
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya

Then water came and extinguished the fire
That had burned the stick that had smitten the dog
That had bitten the cat that had devoured the kid
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya

Then the ox came and drank the water
Which had extinguished the fire that had burned the stick
Which had smitten the dog which had bitten the cat
That had devoured the kid
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya

Then the slaughterer came and slaughtered the ox
Which had drank the water
That had extinguished the fire that had burned the stick
Which had smitten the dog that had bitten the cat
That had devoured the kid
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya

Then the angel of death came and slew the slaughterer
Who had slaughtered the ox
Which had drank the water
That had extinguished the fire that had burned the stick
Which had smitten the dog that had bitten the cat
Which had devoured the kid
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya

Then came the Most Holy, blessed be He!
And destroyed the angel of death
Who had slain the slaughterer
Who had slaughtered the ox
Which had drank the water
Which had extinguished the fire that burned the stick
That had smitten the dog that had bitten the cat
That had devoured the kid
Which my father bought for two zuzim
Chad gadya, chad gadya
