As Simchas Torah approaches, finding all the popular songs for Hakafos can feel daunting. Whether you’re preparing for a lively Hakafos or want to ensure everyone at your event can sing along, having a comprehensive list of songs with proper Hebrew, nekudos (vowel markings), transliteration, and translation can be incredibly helpful.
That’s why we created a Simchas Torah Hakafos Song List PDF—a convenient, printable sheet that puts all the most popular songs in one place. No more searching for song titles, trying to recall the correct Hebrew verses, or struggling with pronunciation. Our list makes it easy for everyone to participate fully in the joy of the Torah, ensuring your Simchas Torah is a truly uplifting experience.
What’s Included:
- Popular Simchas Torah Songs: From “Sisu V’Simchu” to “Torah Tziva,” we’ve gathered the songs everyone knows and loves for Hakafos.
- Accurate Hebrew Text: We’ve ensured that each song is written in proper Hebrew with nekudos (hebrew vowels)
- Transliteration: For those who aren’t comfortable reading Hebrew, the songs are transliterated so that everyone can easily sing along.
- English Translations: Understanding the meaning behind each song adds depth to the experience, so we’ve included translations to keep the spiritual connection strong.
This PDF is perfect for synagogues, families, or anyone hosting a Simchas Torah event. It’s free to download, print, and share—so everyone can celebrate together, whether they know the songs by heart or sing them for the first time.
Why We Made It:
After searching high and low for a simple, printable one-page list that includes all the necessary elements—Hebrew, nekudos, transliteration, and translations—we realized it just wasn’t easy to find. That’s when we decided to compile this resource ourselves. We wanted something accessible that could be printed and shared in any community, making sure no one is left out of the Hakafos celebrations.
Theme for Each Hakafah:
Each Hakafah has its own special theme, and we’ve listed in the first column which Hakafah each song matched up to, although it’s ok to improvise.
- Hakafah 1 – תורה (Torah)
- Hakafah 2 – שמחת החג (Joy of the Festival)
- Hakafah 3 – מלכות (Kingship)
- Hakafah 4 – מסורה (Tradition)
- Hakafah 5 – גדלת ה’ (God’s Greatness)
- Hakafah 6 – ישראל \ עם וארץ (Israel – People and Land)
- Hakafah 7 – ירושלים וסיום (Jerusalem and Conclusion)
