Di mekhutonim geyen, kinder
Lomir zikh freyen shat nokh shat
Der khosn iz gor a vinder
Shpilt a vivat dem khosns tsad!
Ya-ha, ya-ha…
Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
Dem khosns shvester Freydl,
Zi dreyt zikh vi a dreydl, shat nokh shat
Nemt zi arayn in reydl
Un shpilt a vivat dem khosns tsad!
Tra-la-la…
Reb Elye, dem khosns feter,
Dos baykhl glet er, shat nokh shat
Er iz feter fun ale feter…
Shpilt a vivat dem khosns tsad!
Ya-ha, ya-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Ot geyt der feter Mindik
Un blozt zikh vi an indik, shat nokh shat
Vos hot men zikh farzindikt?
Shpilt a vivat dem khosns tsad!
Ya-ha, ya-ha…
Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
Mazl tov!
