• Oyfn Pripetshik

Oyfn pripetchik brent a fayerl
un in shtub is heys.
Un der rebbe lernt kleyne kinderlekh
dem alef-beyz.

Zet-zhe kinderlekh,
Gedenkt-zhe, tayere, vos ir lernt do,
Zogt-zhe nokh amol un take nokh amol:
Komets-alef: o!

Lernt, kinder, mit groys kheyshek,
Azoy zog ikh aykh on,
Ver s'vet gikher fun aykh kenen ivre,
Der bakumt a fon.

Lernt kinder, hot nit moyre,
yeder onhoyb iz shver
Glicklech der vos hot gelrnt toyre
Tsi darf der mentsh noch mer?

Ir vet kinder, elter vern,
vet ir aleyn farshteyn
vifil in di oyseyes lign trern
un vifil geveyn.

Az ir vet, kinder, dem goles shlepn,
Oysgemutshet zayn,
Zolt ir fun di oysyes koyekh shepn,
Kukt in zey arayn!

A flame burns in the fireplace.
The room warms up,
As the teacher drills
The children in
Their A, B, C's.

Translation:

"Remember dear children,
What you are learning here.
Repeat it again and again:
'Komets-alef' is pronounced 'o'.

Learn children with great passion
So I ask of you
Those of you that know it quickly
Will get a prize.

Learn, children, don't be afraid
Every start is difficult
Happy those who've learned the Torah
What more could a man ask for?

When you grow older, children
Then you'll understand
How many tears and how much weeping
Lie in these letters.

When you grow weary
And burdened with exile,
You will find comfort and strength
Within this Jewish alphabet.
