I heard this song on JM in the AM: Norman Laster played two versions on his Friday morning program 9/28. It is in their recording archive as follows: http://www.jmintheam.org/. Go to the "listen to archives" link, choose the September 28, 2001 streaming audio file, and then move the slider to the time: 1:27:29 to find the begining of the song. Here is my attempt at the lyrics. I don't know too much Yiddush so I was just sounding out the words. Perhaps you can clean them up. Thanks for your web page!

In grade school my music teacher provided an English translation containing the following lyrics:
Over the valley, voices are singing, bells are a'ringing!
Dance, everyone, dance!
Come to the valley, run through the clover.
Harvest is over!
Dance, everyone, dance!
Dance where the corn grows high, under a golden sky.
Dance where the wine was born.
Dance, everyone dance.
Whirl and turn about, lift up your arms and shout, join hands and kick along.
Dance, everyone dance.
Turn left, turn right, hold tight.
Lift your feet, the heart will follow.
Lift your voice, fill the hollow.
Spread your wings, like the swallow.
Spread your wings, like the swallow.
Fly away... greet the day! Dance, dance, everybody dance!
The song that everyone has danced to at least 100 times at
weddings, bat m |
