Yiddish Lyrics

Mazl,
es shaynt a mol far yedn
Far yedn nor nit far mir
Mazl, du brengst a yedn freydn
Farvos farzoymstu (farzamstu) mayn tir?

Oy vi es tut bank a yede sho
Dos lebn fargeyt un kayn hofenung iz alts nito
Oy, Mazl, es shaynt a mol far yedn
Far yedn nor nit far mir

Ven es kumt on di nakht
Blayb ikh zitsn un trakht
Nokh a tog iz shoyn vider farbay
Under kholem vos ikh
Hob gekholemt far zikh
Iz avek mitn vint oyf dos nay

Translation

Good fortune has come along for others, why does it avoid
me?
Will it ever come and will it as it has for others bring a
little happiness to me?
