Candle Lighting
The candles are lit before the blessing is recited. On Shabbat, include the words in parentheses.
The first recording is the candle blessing for a weekday; the second recording is for the candle blessing when the festival falls on Shabbat.
Hebrew Text
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה, יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ, מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם,
אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ, בְּמִצְוֹתָיו וְצוָּנוּ,
לְהַדְלִיק נֵר שֶׁל [שַׁבָּת וְשֶׁל] יוֹם טוֹב.

Translation
Blessed are You, our God, Ruler of the world, who sanctifies us with mitzvot and calls upon us to kindle the lights of [Shabbat and] the Festival day.
