Let’s learn the alef bet 
Simple as it can be 
You’ll learn the alef bet 
If you sing the letters after me 
Each letter has a name and a sound it always makes 
Now let’s sing this special Chorus 
We’ll have fun it will not bore us 
It’s the alef bet 

(Chorus) 

Let’s try it once again 
Practice the alef bet 
Each time we sing our song 
Then the easier the letters get 
You sing it first this time 
Sing it loud let me hear your voice 
I will hear you getting better 
As you sing each Hebrew letter 
It’s the alef bet ... you start it ... 

(Chorus) 

Each letter has a name and a sound it always makes 
Together they’re the alphabet 
The alef bet
