lyrics

Sukkat Shalom, סוכת שלום, by Joanie Calem, ©2016

Echo each line:

I need some wooden posts, cloth for the walls, hammer and nails, gonna build a סוכה sukkah

Chorus:
Invite אושפזין ushpezin into our sukkah, השלום ,בסוכת b’sukkat hashalom there’s room for all.

We’ve got three walls, but no roof, the סכך schach on top, lets us see on through
Bring the אתרוג etrog, and the ערבה aravah, הדסים hadasim, and the לולב lulav.
Chorus

Here comes סבתא savtah, and סבא saba too, דוד ודודה dod v’dodah, and we’ll make more room….
Here comes אבא abba, and אמא ema too, my אח ואחות ach v’achot, and we’ll make more room
Chorus

Here come the שכנים shchenim, and my חברים chaverim too,
some אורחים orchim from afar, and we’ll make more room
My סוכה sukkah can hold, so many friends, seems the walls expand, and there’s room without end….
Chorus (with tag ending)
