Di mame kokht varenikes
Un ikh bin gor fleyshik
Zey ikh a sheyn meydale

Mayn mame in der mit
Ikh hob lib dos meydale –
Mayn mame vil zi nit
Tra-la-la…
Sheyn iz dos meydale
Vi di gantse velt
Nor eyn khisorn hot zi zikh:
Zi hot dokh nit keyn gelt
Tra-la-la…
Gelt iz dokh kaylekhdik,
Es kayklt zikh avek
Nem ikh mir mayn meydale
Un for mit ir avek

Ikh for mit ir avek
Tsu der shtot Odes
Un shtel mit ir a khupe
In eyn mes-les
Tra-la-la…
