Schtil, di nacht iz oysgeschternt Un der frost hot schtark gebrent. Zi gedenkstu vi ich hob dich gelernt Halten a schpayer in di hent? A moyd, a peltzl un a beret Un halt in hand fest a nagan. A moyd mit a sametenem ponim Hit op dem soynes'ss karavan. Getzilt, gechossen un getrofen Hot ir kleyninker pistoyl. An oto a fulinken mit wofen Farhalten hot zi mit eyn koyl. Fartog, fun wald aroysgekrochen Mit schneygirlanden oyf di hor. Gemutikt fun kleyninken nitzochen Far unser nayem frayen dor !!
Translated lyrics
Quiet; the night is filled with stars, And the frost has burned hard. Do you remember how I taught you To hold a submachine gun in your hand? A girl, a fur coat and a beret Holding a pistol in her hand. A girl with a velvet skin face Stops the enemy's column. Aim, fire, and hit Has her tiny pistol. A truck filled with weapons She has stopped with one bullet. Before dawn, having crept out of the woods With snowflake-garlands on her hair. Encouraged by a small victory For our new aera of liberty! [lit.: free aera]
