The Ten Plagues
Leader: When we recite each plague we will take a drop from our glass of wine each time, why do we do this?
All in Unison:
The wine soaks in every word,
absorbs every message, captures every song.
When we drink from our glass, we drink of freedom and to freedom.
Our freedom came with a price, innocent people suffered.
We do not rejoice in their suffering,
We remove a drop for all who suffered for our freedom
and for those still suffering from their own plagues.
(First we recite each plague in Hebrew then in English; lastly, using our pinky finger we remove one drop of wine from our glass onto the edge of our plate)
