Song Text
Shlof, mayn kind,
Shlof keseyder.
Zingen vel ikh dir a lid.
||: Az du, mayn kind, vest elter vern,
Vestu visn an untershid. :||
Az du, mayn kind, vest elter vern,
Vestu vern mit laytn glaykh –
||: Demolt vestu gevoyer vern,
Vos heyst orem, un vos heyst raykh… :||
Di tayerste palatsn,
Di raykhste hayzer,
Dos alts makht der oreman,
||: Nor veystu, ver es tut in zey voynen? –
Gor nit er, nor der raykher man! :||
Di shlof, mayn kind,
Shlof keseyder.
Zingen vel ikh dir a lid.
||: Az du, mayn kind, vest elter vern,
Vestu visn an untershid. :||
