Es yogt mikh ver, s’yogt un lozt nit tsu ru –
O mame, mayn mamele, vu bistu, vu?
||: Es zukht dikh dayn Sorele, s’ruft dikh dayn kind
Es yomert un voyet in feld un der vint :||


Der tate nito, ver veyst, vu er iz… -
Es hot im gefangen a groyzamer riz.
||: Di nakht shvarts geven iz, ven dos iz geshen;
Nokh shvartser dos ponim der mames geven. :||


In vogl fun tog, in vander fun nakht
In umru fun shlof ligt dos kind un es trakht/dakht(?).
||: Zi dakht, az zi hert shoyn fun tatn di trit
Di mame farvigt zi un zingt ir a/dos lid… :||


Az du vest amol a mamele zayn,
Zolstu dayne kinder dertseyln dem payn.
||: Vi tate un mame gelitn fun faynd -
Farshelt dan dem nekhtn un bentsh dan dem haynt! :||
