Original lyrics
Oy, helft mir, kinder, unter - keyn koykhes iz nito. Gekumen iz der vinter, der vinter iz shoyn do! Er fregt keynem keyn deyes, er kumt vi tsu zikh aheym, mit der vayser bord un peyes, mit der vayser, groyser brem. Durkh tol un velder yogt er, gehoykert tsu der erd; mit zikh a bezem trogt er un kert, un kert, un kert! Mit shney gebet di felder, farfroyrn shteyt der vald, di felder un di velder - zey brumen: kalt! s'iz kalt! In bet ligt krank mayn Sheyndl, mit ir dos kleyne kind, nishto in shtub keyn shpendl, in fentster veynt der vint... Er shvaygt, der alter zeyde, er makht zikh nit fun dem, er lakht in di foystn beyde un shoklt mit der brem... Er vil keynem nit shoynen, khotsh shray, khotsh veyn on a shier... Vu tsar un elnt voynen, dort klapt er in der tir. Oy, helft mir, kinder, unter - keyn koykhes iz nito. Gekumen iz der vinter, der vinter iz shoyn do! Mark Warshawsky, Yidishe folkslider (Buenos-Aires, 1972)
