English Lyrics
Oy, Avrom, ich ken on dir nit zayn!
Ich on dir, du on mir, kenen nit beyde zayn!
Gedenkstu, gedenkstu, dort bai dem toyer,
Host du gezogt a soyd mir in oyer.
Oy, oy, Rivkenyu,
gib zhe mir dayn piskenyu!
Oy, Avrom, ich ken on dir nit zayn!
Ich on dir, du on mir, a kliamke on a tir!
Gedenkstu, gedenkstu, mit dir baym bulevar,
ich bin der kluger un du der nar.
Oy, vey, Rivkenyu,
gib zhe mir dayn piskenyu!
Oy, Avrom, ich ken on dir nit zayn!
Ich on dir, du on mir, kenen nit beyde zayn!
Gedenkstu, gedenkstu, dos royte kleydl?
Oy, vi bin ikh a zise maydl!
Oy, oy, Rivkenyu,
gib zhe mir dayn piskenyu!
