Song Text
Sheyn bin ikh, sheyn, sheyn iz mayn nomen
Redt men mir shedikhim fun same rabonim.
Rabonishe toyre iz dokh zeyer groys!
Bin ikh bay mayn mamen a lekhtike royz!
A sheyn meydele bin ikh,
Royte zekelekh trog ikh.
Gelt in di tashn,
vayn in di flashn,
Milekh in di krigelekh,
Kinder in di vigelekh
Shrayen ale „Sheyn!“
Sheyn bin ikh, sheyn.
Beser a melamed, afile a beyzn -
Eyder a student mit tserisene heyzn…
Beser a behelfer mit a tuts kleyne kinder -
Eyder gor a dokter mit a tsebrokhenem tsilinder!
A sheyn meydele bin ikh,
Royte zekelekh trog ikh.
Gelt in di tashn,
vayn in di flashn,
Milekh in di krigelekh,
Kinder in di vigelekh
Shrayen ale „Sheyn!“
Sheyn bin ikh, sheyn.
Bester a proster kloyznik, afile nit keyn guter -
Eyder an apteyker vus preglt fleysh oyf puter…
Ikh vil nemen a khosid mit a por lange peyes
Un er vet mir brengen fun undzer rebn kameyes!
A sheyn meydele bin ikh,
Royte zekelekh trog ikh.
Gelt in di tashn,
vayn in di flashn,
Milekh in di krigelekh,
Kinder in di vigelekh
Shrayen ale „Sheyn!“
Sheyn bin ikh, sheyn.
