Hanukkah Candle Lighting

Two blessings are said every night: one on the lighting and one on the miracles. Shehecheyanu is added on the first night only. Said each night of Hanukkah when lighting the menorah, after nightfall.

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו וְצִוָּנוּ לְהַדְלִיק נֵר שֶׁל חֲנֻכָּה

barukh atah adonai eloheinu melekh ha'olam asher kideshanu bemitzvotav vetzivanu lehadlik ner shel khanukah

Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who has made us holy with His commandments and commanded us to light the Hanukkah lamp.

barukh atah adonai eloheinu melekh ha'olam she'asah nisim la'avoteinu bayamim hahem bazeman hazeh

Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who performed miracles for our ancestors in those days, at this time.
