Bin ikh mir a kremerl
Bin ikh mir a kremerl
Leb ikh mir tog-oys-tog-ayn
Lustik un freylakh un fayn!
Zog mir, kremerl,
Hostu mit vos tsu handlen,
Hostu in kreml
Rozhinkes mit mandlen?
Ikh hob in kreml
Far tsvey groshn skhoyre,
Ikh shlep dem dales
Un bentsh dem boyre…
Oy-oy-oy-oy da-di-day... Leb ikh mir tog-oys-tog-ayn Lustik, freylekh, fayn!
