# A personalized Hanukkah song as a gift

Eight nights is a lot of gifts. Make one of them a song: the family’s names, the menorah that came from great-grandma, the latke debates and the year you had, sung warmly for the people you light the candles with.

To be clear: Lyro is made with AI. AI writes the lyrics from what you tell us, an AI voice sings them, and you decide what gets sung before it happens.

## Hanukkah 2026

Hanukkah 2026 begins at sundown on Friday, December 4 and ends at nightfall on Saturday, December 12. That gives you eight evenings to choose from. Many families give the song on a night that is not about big presents, such as the night everyone gathers at the grandparents'.

## What to put in a Hanukkah song

- **Your traditions:** who lights the candles, the menorah's story, the dreidel games and who always cheats.
- **The food:** latkes with applesauce or sour cream (pick a side), sufganiyot, grandma's brisket.
- **The people:** the names around the table, the cousins who fly in, a new baby's first Hanukkah.
- **Light:** the theme of light in dark times fits a song well, especially after a difficult year.

Tell us in your own words; if you use Hebrew or Yiddish words, write them in the spelling you are used to.

## Who it is for

- **Kids:** a playful song about their name, dreidel wins and chocolate gelt. Pop with a funny mood, simple words to sing along.
- **Grandparents:** a warm song from all the grandkids, with the family history and the traditions they passed on.
- **A partner:** your first Hanukkah together, or an interfaith couple's mix of traditions.

## Style and a note on words

**Acoustic** or a ** piano ballad** suit a warm family song; ** pop** works for kids. Avoid the Christmas style, which uses sleigh bells. Hebrew words and family names can be mispronounced by an AI voice, so use the "how to say the name" field and make up to 3 versions to keep the best one.

## How to give it

- **After the candles:** once the blessings are said and the candles are lit, play the song while everyone is still gathered.
- **As the night’s gift:** print the lyrics, add the QR code, and wrap it like any of the eight gifts.
- **To family far away:** send the link before a video call on one of the nights and listen together.
- **For the kids:** play it during the dreidel game and let them sing the chorus.

## Sample lyric: a Hanukkah song for the grandkids

An example, so you can see how specific lyrics can get. Your song is written from your details.

[Verse 1]
Eight little candles and Grandpa’s steady hand
The menorah from Odessa, still the finest in the land
Noah spins the dreidel, swears it landed on a gimel
Bubbe fries the latkes and the kitchen is a sizzle

[Chorus]
Light it up, light it up, one more night to shine
All of us together at this table, yours and mine
The winter can be long, but the candles burn so bright
Happy Hanukkah, Noah, we’re the family tonight

## Frequently asked questions

### Can the song include Hebrew words?

Yes, a few. Spell them as you are used to and, for names, use the pronunciation field. The song is sung in English, and AI voices can stress Hebrew words unusually, so make up to 3 versions.

### Is it suitable for an interfaith family?

Yes. Tell us how your family celebrates, whether that is Hanukkah alone or alongside Christmas, and the lyrics follow your story.

### Can I give it on a particular night?

Yes. The song is ready in minutes, so you can make it the afternoon of the night you want to give it.

### Which style suits Hanukkah?

Acoustic, piano ballad or pop work well. The Christmas style is built around sleigh bells, so most families skip it for Hanukkah.
