Song - Dayenu

Here are some lyrics to Dayenu, a song we sing on Passover!

Dayenu

If He had brought us out from Egypt, and had not carried out judgments against them, dayenu!

Ilu hotzianu mimitzrayim,  v'lo asah bahem sh'fatim,  dayeinu!

If He had carried out judgments against them, and not against their idols, dayenu!

Ilu asah bahem sh'fatim  v'lo asah beloheihem, dayeinu!

If He had destroyed their idols, and had not smitten their first-born, Dayenu!

Ilu asah beloheihem,  v'lo harag et b'choreihem,  dayeinu!

If He had given us their wealth, and had not split the sea for us, dayenu!

Ilu natan lanu et mamonam,  v'lo kara lanu et hayam,  dayeinu!

If He had split the sea for us, and had not taken us through it on dry land, dayenu!

Ilu kara lanu et hayam,  v'lo he'eviranu b'tocho becharavah,  dayeinu!

If He had taken us through the sea on dry land, and had not drowned our oppressors in it, dayenu!

Ilu he'eviranu b'tocho becharavah,  v'lo shika tzareinu b'tocho,  dayeinu!

If He had drowned our oppressors in it, and had not supplied our needs in the desert for forty years, dayenu!

Ilu shika tzareinu b'tocho,  v'lo sipeik tzorkeinu bamidbar arba'im shana,  dayeinu!

If He had fed us the manna, and had not given us the Shabbat, dayenu!

Ilu he'echilanu et haman,   v'lo natan lanu et hashabbat,   dayeinu!

If He had given us the Shabbat, and had not brought us before Mount Sinai, dayenu!

Ilu natan lanu et hashabbat,  v'lo keirvanu lifnei har sinai, dayeinu!

If He had brought us before Mount Sinai, and had not given us the Torah, dayenu!

Ilu keirvanu lifnei har sinai, v'lo natan lanu et hatorah,  dayeinu!

If He had given us the Torah, and had not brought us into the land of Israel, dayenu!

Ilu natan lanu et hatorah, v'lo hichnisanu l'eretz yisra'eil,  dayeinu!

If He had brought us into the land of Israel, and not built for us the Holy Temple, dayenu!

Ilu hichnisanu l'eretz yisra'eil,  v 'lo vanah lanu et beit hamikdash,   dayeinu!
