Yiddish Lyrics

shpilt je mir klezmorimleh
dos keshenever shtikele
hober mit akniak,
hungerik un shlepherik un nakhet un borves
in keshne nishto kein pitak
zu undz geher di ganze velt
un mir der ganze velt gehern, dos iz dokh shoin fesgeshtelt a fakt
untomer vet men undz nit gleyben
tomer vet undz fregn' vel,
keinen mir im vaizen a kontrak

zores un grizote agmes nefesh un yesurim
hob'n zet ir mir a ganze pak
hobih gornit darf ih gornit
vel ih gornit nit far liren vet men mih nit rufen kein chudak

and on and on...
i don't rememeber the last chourus

Translation

Well, I sing in a Jewish folk Ensemble, here in Israel, and we just happen to have that song in our repertoire so I wanted to be nice and write the lyrics, but when I started doing it, I forgot the last chorus, since I don't actually sing it... oh well then:)
