Ikh bin in dorf, in feld, in frayem
Oysgevaksn, oy, vi a blum
Un geflokhtn laptshes, naye
In der shtilkeyt fun arum


Ekh, laptshes, ir mayn…
Laptshes, libinke in fayn -
Oysgetrotn un tseshotn
Iber felder, iber velder…


Ikh hob di arbayt in der hant koym,
Es vilt zikh gur nisht tin mir haynt,
Un ikh shveb mir shtil mayn troym
Ikh vil zikh trefn mit dir haynt…


Ekh, laptshes, ir mayn…
Laptshes, libinke un fayn -
Oysgetrotn un tseshotn
Iber felder, iber velder…


S’hot a ying mayn harts gefangen,
Mikh farkisheft mit zayn blik –
Bin ikh dan in feld gegangen
Zikh tsu trefn mit mayn glik…


Ekh, laptyes, ir mayn…

Shoyn genig gevezn fray!
Un er traybt mikh tsurik in khate
Flekhtn laptshes oyf dus nay…


||: Ekh, laptshes, ir mayne…
Laptshes, libinike in fayn
Oysgetrotn un tseshotn
Iber felder, iber velder… :||
