Yiddish Lyrics

Akh, in a nakht,
In a gliklekher nakht,
A freyd on a shier
far uns beydn gebrakht.

Tsum ershtn mol
ven ikh hob dikh derzen,
geshpilt af [...]
Un muzik azoy sheyn.

_Tsveyele_ hertser keseyder geveyn,
_libes_gefiln_ un _shildet_ (?) un _reyn_,
_gedrikt_ hob ikh dir azoy tsertlekh tsu mir,
zikh _eybelekh_faln_ in dir.

Translation

Dear, as I held you so close in my arms,
Angels were singing a hymn to your charms,
Two hearts gently beating
And murmuring low:
"My darling, I love you so."
