Original lyrics
Yoshke, Yoshke, shpan dem loshek, Zol er gikher loyfn, Tomer vet er zikh obshteln Veln mir im nit kenen farkoyfn. Der Rebbe hot geheysn freylakh zayn, Trinkn bronfn nisht keyn vayn.
Translated lyrics
Yoshke, Yoshke, pace the horse, Let him run quickly. If he stops, We won't be able to sell him. The Rebbe has told us to be merry And to drink whiskey, not wine.
