Who Knows One?

Ooh, ah, oo-ah-ah, I said Ooh, ah, oo-ah-ah,

Who knows One? I know one:

One is Ha-Shem, One is Ha-Shem,

One is Ha-Shem in the heaven and the earth, La-dee-da-dee-da-dee-da!

Ooh, ah, oo-ah-ah, I said Ooh, ah, oo-ah-ah,

Who knows Two? I know Two:

Two are the tablets that Moshe brought,

And one is Ha-Shem, One is Ha-Shem,

One is Ha-Shem in the heaven and the earth, La-dee-da-dee-da-dee-da!

Ooh, ah, oo-ah-ah, I said Ooh, ah, oo-ah-ah,

Who knows Three? I know Three:

Three are the Papas,

Two are the tablets that Moshe brought,

And one is Ha-Shem, One is Ha-Shem,

One is Ha-Shem in the heaven and the earth, La-dee-da-dee-da-dee-da!

(Keep going all the way up to 13! Here are the rest of the verses.)

One is Ha-Shem, One is Ha-Shem, One is Ha-Shem…in the heaven and the earth!

Two are the tablets that Moshe brought,

Three are the Papas,

Four are the Mamas,

Five are the books of the (clap) Torah,

Six are the parts of the (clap) Mishnah,

Seven are the Days of the Week (boom boom)

Eight are the days to the B’rit Milah,

Nine are the months ‘til a baby’s born,

Ten are the Ten Commandments,

Eleven are the stars in Joseph’s dream,

Twelve are the tribes of Israel,

Thirteen are the years to B’nai Mitzvah (Yeah!)

Notes….the Papas are of course Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, while the Mamas are Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah.

This is a great tune for kids to present at the seder. They can add silly hand motions or even some serious choreography.
