Yiddish Lyrics

Shteyt in feld a beymelech
Hot es grine tzvigelech
Zitst daroyf a faygeleh
Macht es tzu di eygelech
Oif di grine tzvigelech
Vakst a golden epeleh
Mach tzu mine kind di eygelech
A brocha oyf dine kepeleh
Oyf di grine tzvigelech
Shlofn shoyn di feygelech
Di mame zingt za "ah ah ah"
S'iz a shtileh nacht

Translation

In the field stands a little tree
It has little green twigs
On it sits a little birdie
Close your little eyes now
On the little green branches
Grows a little apple
Close your eyes my child
A blessing on your head
On the little green branches
The little birdies are already asleep
Their mother sings "ah ah ah" to them
It is a still night
