Echad Mi Yodea
"Echad Mi Yodea" (Hebrew: אחד מי יודע?, lit.
is a traditional cumulative song sung on Passover and found in the haggadah.
It enumerates common Jewish motifs and teachings.
It is meant to be fun and humorous, while still imparting important lessons to the children present.
The song has versions in Hebrew, Yiddish, Arabic, and many other vernacular languages.
Sometimes the goal is to recite the entire verse in one breath.
Although it can appear to be simply a juvenile children's song, an important message is being imparted to those present at the Passover table.
The main theme of Passover, and particularly of the Seder, is not only the physical freedom of a nation of slaves.
As His people, the Jewish Nation is expected to be wholly at one with God, and to relate everything in their lives to Him.
It is sometimes thought that word association reveals the unconscious mind.
Thus, it is at this point in the Seder that the Jews sing this cumulative song.
According to the Encyclopaedia Judaica, this song is first found in Ashkenazi Haggadot of the 16th century.
It is believed to have originated in Germany in the 15th century, possibly based on a German folk song "Guter freund ich frage dich", which means "Good friend, I ask you".
"Echad Mi Yodea" is a cumulative song, meaning that each verse is built on top of the previous verses.
