Purim Song Lyrics - Singles - Maccabeats

Stand stand for a tale so grand 

Shushan is the place where it all began 

The hidden miracle 

One man, second in command 

Slay all the Jews was his wicked plan 

A scheme so miserable 

He chose a day for the disaster 

It's ironic what came after 

He didn't know a girl named Esther 

Would turn it upside down 

So raise your glass if you can see the hidden meaning, 

it's right in front of you, 

we will never be never be anything but proud to tell the story, 

v'nahafoch hu (It was turned upside down) 

Won't you come on and come on and raise your glass 

just come on and come on and raise your glass 

Esther became the queen 

Cuz' God was pulling strings from behind the scenes 

She wore the royal crown 

3 days the Jews just prayed, 

Queen Esther risked her life went to save the day 

She took Haman down 

The streets were filled with celebration 

Everyone ate Hamantashen 

Jubilation for the nation 

Ken tihiyeh lanu... (So should it be for us) 

So raise your glass if you can see, the hidden meaning, 

it's right in front of you, 

we will never be never be anything but proud to tell the story, 

v'nahafoch hu 

Won't you come on and come on and raise your glass 

just come on and come on and raise your glass 

So get your costumes on 

Make noise and drown out Haman 

Don't drink like a fool 

And remember and remember 

What the day's about... 

So raise your glass if you see God in hidden places, 

He's right in front of you, 

We will never be never be anything but proud to tell our story 

v'nahafoch hu 

So raise your glass if you can see the hidden meaning, 

it's right in front of you, 

we will never be never be anything but proud to tell the story, 

v'nahafoch hu 

Won't you come on and come on and raise your glass 

just come on and come on and raise your glass...
