Her nor us, mayn tayer kind:
Ekh vel dir epes zugn
Ekh vel dir gebn a shnayder-ying,
zolst mit im khasene hubn.
Neyn, mame, neyn, miter!
A shnayder-ying iz zeyer biter
A shnayder-ying neyt mit der nudl
Er shlugt dus vayb a kuved-gudl…
Neyn, mame, neyn, miter!
A shnayder-ying iz zeyer biter
Her nor us, mayn tayer kind:
Ekh vel dir epes zugn
Ekh vel dir gebn a shister-ying,
zolst mit im khasene hubn.
Neyn, mame, neyn, miter!
A shister-ying iz zeyer biter
Er tsit di dratve mit di tseyn
Un kikt of meydlekh mole-kheyn…

Ekh vel dir gebn a beker-ying,

Yo, mame, yo, getraye!
A klezmer-ying iz a mekhaye!
