Ikh vel dikh keynmol nisht farbaytn!
Ikh bin tsi shtark farlibt in dir…
Vus ken mayn leybn den badaytn,

Dayn plats farnemen ken nisht keyne,

Azoy vi G’t iz nor du eyner,
Vest di zayn eyntsik dan bay mir.


Vest mikh amul farlozn, vel ikh oysgeyn far di yurn…
Vayl di leybst ba mir in hartsn, in di voynst in mayn zikurn!
In gite oder shlekhte tsaytn vet (... ?) zayn bay mir
