Gey ikh mir shpatsirn, tralalala
Bagegn ikh a bokher, aha! aha!

Er zogt, er vet mikh nemen, tralala
Er leygt es op af zumer, aha! aha!

Der zumer iz gekumen, tralala
Er hot mikh nisht genumen, aha! aha!

Itzt vil er mikh shoyn nemen, tralala

Translation

1.
As I go out for a stroll,
I meet a handsome fellow

2.
He says he wants to marry me,
But he postpones the wedding till the summer

3.
Summer comes, but he does not want to marry me.

4.
Now again he wants to marry me,
But I won't have him!

If he didn't want me once, now I won't have him! Clip here from Martha Schlamme's CD Martha Schlamme sings Jewish folk songs
