Had Gadya in Arabic חד גדיא בערבית أغنية لعيد الفصح اليهودي

Eden Mi Qedem - להקת עדן מקדם שיר לפסח Classic Passover song (Wahad jidi) sung in Arabic, according to the Syrian Jewish tradition (Damascus). Some think it’s a silly children’s song, but I believe that it has a deep message. (Translation below) “ואחד ג’ידי“ Link to pdf of Hebrew lyrics: Check out Eden Mi Qedem’s face book page for more Hebrew Arabic psychedelia: Lyrics: One little goat, one little goat. That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat. Then came the cat and ate the goat, That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat. Then came the dog and bit the cat, that ate the goat, That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat. Then came the stick and beat the dog, that bit the cat, that ate the goat, That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat. Then came fire and burnt the stick, that beat the dog, that bit the cat, that ate the goat, That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat. Then came the water and quenched the fire, that burnt the stick, that beat the dog, that bit the cat, that ate the goat, That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat. Then came the ox and drank the water, that quenched the fire, that burnt the stick, that beat the dog, that bit the cat, that ate the goat, That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat. Then came the slaughterer and slaughtered the ox, that drank the water, that quenched the fire, that burnt the stick, that beat the dog, that bit the cat, that ate the goat, That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat. Then came the Angel of Death and killed the slaughterer, that slaughtered the ox, that drank the water, that quenched the fire, that burnt the stick, that beat the dog, that bit the cat, that ate the goat, That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat. Then came the Holy One, Blessed be He and took the Angel of Death, that killed the slaughterer, that slaughtered the ox, that drank the water, that quenched the fire, that burnt the stick, that beat the dog, that bit the cat, that ate the goat, That my father bought for two coins, one little goat, one little goat.
