Yiddish Lyrics
Ikh ben geforen iber yamen
Kh'ob gevolt nor zayn tsuzamen
Mit mayn tatn
Un mit ale mayne fraynt;
S'hot getsitert yedes eyver
Ven kh'ob farlozt mayn mames keyver,
Gekumen do in dem golden land.
Ikh bin geforen aher
Mit hofnung on a shir,
Tsum sof makht men gor khozek
Do fun mir.
(Refrain)
Ikh vill tsurik aheym
in stetele in deym
Avu ikh hob gehat zikh ruyik un bekvem
Ikh vil nit mer zeyn do
Avu kayn fraynshaft iz nito
