Original lyrics
A glesele lechajim ess schodt nit nehmen hajnt wen me sizt baj a jontewdikn tisch. A glesele lechajim far frajndschaft un far frajnt me sol schtendik nor munter sajn un frisch. A glesele lechajim far alt un jung woss sizn do, un far jedern basunder woss sajnen hajnt mit unds nito. A glesele lechajim der becher ful mit wajn far der sun, si sol schtendik mit unds sajn A glesele lechajim trinken mir azind nor ojf simchess baj jedern fun ajch. A glesele lechajim far muter un far kind, as mit nachess di mame sol sajn rajch. A glesele lechajim nit opschtejn sol fun ajch di schajn, kejn schwarzer tog in lebn in der mischpoche sol nit sajn. A glesele lechajim is ojsstrinken kedaj wen me set sich mit frajnd ojf doss naj. A glezele lekhayim far undzer groysn land, Iber undz zol der himl hein rein! A glezele lekhayim ikh vintsh aykh nor,zol zayn, Mit a shmeykhl oyf di lipn zolt ir geyn! A glezele lekhayim bagleytn zol undz shtendik greyt! Mit layblekhe un noente me zol keyn mol nit zayn tseshydt! A glezele lekhayim far alts,vos undz bahelt! Un far sholem oyf der gantser velt!"
