Yiddish Lyrics

Mekhutonim Geyn
Mekhutonim Geyen, kinder
Oy, lomir zikh freyen, shat nor shat!
Der khosn iz a vunder
O, shpilt a vivat farn khosns tsad!

Refrain
Dzham dzham...
Tidl lidl tidl lidl..
Mekhutonim geyen ale,
A tentzele in eynem geshvind
O zet nor zet nor kinder
Vi zey tupn vi zey tantzn atzind

Mekhutonim geyn...
Ot geyt di shvester Freydl
O, nemt zi arayn in reydl
Zi dreyt zikh vi a dreydl
O, shpilt a vivat farn khosns tzad!

Mekhutonim geyn...
Ot geyt der feter Mendlik
Vos hobn mir zikh farzindikt
Er blozt zikh vi an indik
O shpilt a vivat far khosns tzad!
