Chad Gadyo

Then came one kid, just one kid,
Which my father bought for two zuzeem.
Chad gadyo, chad gadyo.

Then came the cat, which ate the kid,
Which my father bought for two zuzeem.
Chad gadyo, chad gadyo.

Then came the dog,
Which bit the cat, which ate the kid,
Which my father bought for two zuzeem.
Chad gadyo, chad gadyo.

Then came the stick, which beat the dog,
Which bit the cat, which ate the kid,
Which my father bought for two zuzeem.
Chad gadyo, chad gadyo.

Then came the fire,
Which burned the stick, which beat the dog,
Which bit the cat, which ate the kid,
Which my father bought for two zuzeem.
Chad gadyo, chad gadyo.

Then came the water, which put out the fire,
Which burned the stick, which beat the dog,
Which bit the cat, which ate the kid,
Which my father bought for two zuzeem.
Chad gadyo, chad gadyo.

Then came the ox,
Which drank the water, which put out the fire,
Which burned the stick, which beat the dog,
Which bit the cat, which ate the kid,
Which my father bought for two zuzeem.
Chad gadyo, chad gadyo.

Then came the Shochet, who slaughtered the ox,
Which drank the water, which put out the fire,
Which burned the stick, which beat the dog,
Which bit the cat, which ate the kid,
Which my father bought for two zuzeem.

Then came the angel of death,
Who killed the Shochet, who slaughtered the ox,
Which drank the water, which put out the fire,
Which burned the stick, which beat the dog,
Which bit the cat, which ate the kid,
Which my father bought for two zuzeem.
