Song Text
Di velt nemt mikh arum mit shtekhike hent
Un trogt mikh tsum fayer un trogt mikh tsum shayter
Ikh bren un ikh bren un ikh ver nit farbrent
Ikh heyb zikh oyf vider un shpan avek vayter
Ikh shpan durkh fabrikn, ikh fal untern rod
Ikh rays oyf di damfn mit kraft, mit banayter
Ikh leyg zikh avek vi a nayer yesod
Ikh heyb zikh oyf vider un shpan avek vayter
Ot shpan ikh zikh ayn in di shpan fun a ferd
Un iber mir baytsht a dertsornter rayter
Vi a aker, a sharfer, ikh grob durkh di erd
Ikh heyb zikh oyf vider un shpan avek vayter
Ikh zey mayne lider, vi kerner me zeyt
Zey shprotsn, zey vaksn vi zangen un krayter
Un ikh aleyn lig vi a dorn fardreyt
Ikh heyb zikh oyf vider un shpan avek vayter
Ikh voyn in a tfise, ikh rays oyf di tsel
Es tret iber mir tsu zayn glik der bafrayter
Un mikh lozt er lign in blut bay der shvel
Ikh heyb zikh oyf vider un shpan avek vayter
