Mayn Mirl, Bakent hob ikh zikh mit mayn mirl Ir nomen, vi gezang Vi zise harfn klang ikh shver Mayn Mirl, In zis iz a kish fin mayn mirl In himl bald ikh shvayb Kh'hob vider oyfgelaybt Ikh shver Mayn Mirl, S'iz ir kol, vi muzik, tsart, a shtile Ven zi redt, dakht zikh mir s'iz a tfile Mayn Mirl, kh'vel eybik nor libn Mayn Mirl!
Translated lyrics
Maria! I just met a girl named Maria, and suddenly that name will never be the same to me. Maria! I just kissed a girl named Maria and suddenly I've found how wonderful a sound can be! Maria! Say it loud and there's music playing - Say it soft, and it's almost like praying Maria - I'll never stop saying Maria!
