Song Text
Vi nemt men a bisale mazl,
Vi nemt men a bisale glik?
S’reydale zol zikh shoyn dreyen
Un brengen mayn mazl tsurik.
Di velt, zi iz dokh bashafn
Far ale mentshn glaykh -
Vi nemt men a bisale, khotsh aza bisale…
Vi nemt men a bisale glik?
Yurn fin tsures, yurn fun payn
Tsaytn, vus ergere ken shoyn nisht zayn
Gegangen oyf veygn fardorbn in shlekht,
Gepatert di yurn, di teyg in di nekht.
Mitn (?) tsebrokhn bin ikh
In freyg ikh di frage bay zikh:
Vi nemt men a bisele mazl?
Oy, vi nemt men a bisele glik?
Dus reydale zol zikh shoyn dreyen
In brengen mayn mazl tsurik!
Di velt, zi iz dokh bashafn
Far ale mentshn glaykh!
Vi nemt a bisele, khotsh aza bisele –
Vi nemt men a bisale glik?
