Vos Iz Geven Iz Geven Un Nito

Yiddish Lyrics

vos geven iz geven, s'iz mer nishto
shoyn avek yene tsayt, yene sho!
vi shnel farflit der yunger glik,
oy, men ken dos nit nemen mer tsurik.
vayl vos geven iz geven, s'iz mer nishto.

di yorn flien avek, di hor vert groy.
m'neyt zikh, men kleydt zikh,
men makht zikh sheyn.
men nart op nit keynem, nor zikh aleyn.
vayl vos geven iz geven, un mer nishto!
