Original lyrics
In a klain Shtetl ganz morgen fartug Es hert zech a Gejummer a Gewain in a Klug Mentshen, halb nacket, fin di Betten arois Jiden traibt men tsi di Ban arois! Nisht bashraiben kenn di feder, vi es draien zech di Raider! Di Wagones zenen fill Dort firt men di Yiden oif Kiddusch haSchem - nuch Treblinka. un indzere Brider fin yener zait Yam Zai veln nisht wissen dem bitteren Tam Zai kennen nisht wissen di bittere Noit Az yedem Tug erwartet inds der Toit. Di Milchume vet oich amul nemen an Ek Di Velt vet arimnemen a groisamen Shrek Ungefillt mit Waituk dus yidische Herz Wer kenn farshtain indzeren Shmerts? Taichen Treren veln rinnen, as men vet amul gefinen dem gresten Kaiver oif der Velt: Dort ligen Millionen oif Kiddisch haSchem - In Treblinka.
Translated lyrics
Early morning in a small town half naked people are driven out of their beds. Jews. No one can describe how the wheels on the wagons turn on their way to Treblinka Our brothers from the other side don't know perhaps what's happening here. One day this war will also have an end. The world will be terribly shocked. You have to comprehend that there are a million graves in Treblinka.
