Dayenu

Haggadah Section: -- Cup #2 & Dayenu

Dayenu is a song that is part of the Jewish holiday of Passover, and is over one thousand years old. The word “Dayenu” means approximately “it would have been enough for us." The song is about being grateful to God for all of the gifts he gave the Jewish people, such as taking them out of slavery, giving them the Torah and Shabbat, and had God only given one of the gifts, it would have still been enough.

English

Had he given us the Torah,

Only given us the Torah,

Had he given us the Torah,

Dayenu. (It would have been enough.)
