Haadama



Blessed are You, Lord our God, Ruler of the universe,
who creates the fruit of the ground

On all the vegetables that are found,
Growing from the ground,
"Borei Pri Haadama" we say,
They are nutritious in every way,

Cucumbers, peppers, lettuce and tomatoes,
Carrots, spinach, broccoli and potatoes,
We thank Hashem for making the vegetables grow,
Each one is planted in its own neat row.

The blessing of "Haadama" is the one that is right,
On bananas to recite,
Because the banana tree doesn't last from year to year,
It just dries up and disappears.
