Vi iz dus gesele. Vi iz di shtub Vi iz dus yingele vemen kh'hob lib Ot iz dus gesele. Ot iz di shtub Ot iz dus yingele vemen kh'hob lib
Arayn in dus shtibl mayn veytik iz groys [Altz iz farblibben a cholem nor bloyz] [Arayn in dus shtibl in binbald aroiz] [Vier in my yingeles alles shoanoise]
Where is the village, the place of my youth? Where is the boy who kissed me with a truth? Where are the young hearts that sang unafraid? Where are the visions and where have they strayed?
