Der rebe mit di khsidim
Tantsn, pleskn, zingen,
Shrayen ale: rebenyu,
Oy, rebenyu, oy, rebenyu!


Sha shtil, makht nit kayn gerider:
Der rebe geyt shoyn tantsn vider!
Sha shtil, makht nit kayn gevalt!
Der rebe geyt shoyn tantsn bald.


Un az der rebe tantsn, tsitern di vent!
Lomir, ale khsidimlekh, pleskn mit di hent!


Sha shtil, makht nit kayn gerider:
Der rebe geyt shoyn tantsn vider!
Shshsh, shtil! Makht nit kayn gevalt!
Der rebe geyt shoyn tantsn bald.


Un az der rebe tantsn, tsitert men in himl!
Lomir, ale khsidimlekh, nit makhn kayn tuml!


Shshsh, shtil! Makht nit kayn gerider:
Der rebe geyt shoyn tantsn vider!
Shshsh! Shtil! Makht nit kayn gevalt!
Der rebe geyt shoyn tantsn bald.


Un az der rebe zogt far dem oylem toyre:
Hern ale khsidimlekh mit groys moyre…


Sha, shtil! Makht nit kayn gerider:
Der rebe geyt shoyn tantsn vider!
Shshsh! Shtil! Makht nit kayn gevalt!
Der rebe geyt shoyn tantsn bald.
