Az der Rebi Eylimeylekh iz gevorn zeyer freylekh,

Un di fidldike fidler hobn fidldik gefidlt,
Un gefidlt un gefidlt hobn zey!
Un di fidldike fidlers hobn fidldik gefidlt,
Un gefidlt un gefidlt ot azoy!


Un az der Rebi Elimelekh iz gevorn zeyer freylekh,
Iz gevorn zeyer freylekh – Elimeylakh!
Hot er oysgeton dem kitl, un hot ongeton dos hitl,
Un hot geshikt nokh di tsimbler di tsvey.


Un di tsimbldike tsimbler hobn tsimbldik getsimblt,

Un shrayt oys: „Oy, mayn kop, oy, mayn kop!“
