Song Text
Ikh bin mir a shnayderl
Bin ikh mir a shnayderl
Leyb ikh mir tug-oys, tug-ayn
Lustik in freylekh in fayn!
Zug mir, shnayderl,
libinker in giter:
Hosti geneyt
Far zikh a sheynem fiter?
Ikh fardin a vokh
Tsvey gildn mit a drayer.
Trug a prostn rekl
Vayl a fiter iz tsi tayer…
Ay-dam, day, dudl-dam
Ay-dam, day, dudl-dam
Leyb ikh mir tug-oys, tug-ayn
Lustik in freylekh in fayn!
Ikh bin mir a shisterl
Bin ikh mir a shisterl
Leyb ikh mir tug-oys, tug-ayn
Lustik in freylekh in fayn!
Zug mir shisterl,
hosti vus tse kayen?
Felt dir oyset,
Krigsti vi tse layen?
Keyner layt nit,
In keyner git kayn urebes
Ikh bin a shister –
Oy, gey ikh take burves…
Ay-dam, day, dudl-dam
Ay-dam, day, dudl-dam
Leyb ikh mir tug-oys, tug-ayn
Lustik in freylekh in fayn!
Ikh bin mir a blekherl
Bin ikh mir a blekherl
Leyb ikh mir tug-oys, tug-ayn
Lustik in freylekh in fayn!
Zug mir, blekherl,
Libinker in giter:
Git dir dayn arbet
Genig af broyt mit piter?
Ay, ikh farrikht,
Oy, nor di raykhe dekher –
Ba mir in eygn shtib,
Oy, rint fin ale lekher…
Ay-dam, day, dudl-dam
Ay-dam, day, dudl-dam
Leyb ikh mir tug-oys, tug-ayn
Lustik in freylekh in fayn!
