Yiddish Lyrics

Ven ikh zol zikh nor oystoygn
Gefinen kheyn in dayne oygn,
volt di gantse velt geven shoyn mayn
Ikh volt gezungen di "Hatikve," zikh getoyvlt in der mikve,
Abi du zolst mit mir in eynem zayn
Ikh volt gemakht a masematn,
A knekht gevorn bay dayn tatn
Vi Yankev iz bay Lovenen geven
Ikh volt gelitn ale eymes,
Un gemolkn di beheymes,
Abi ikh zol dir shtendik kenen zen.
Du gefelst dokh a yedn glaykh,
Ver es kukt nor oyf dir
Un host gefunen kheyn a sakh
In di oygn yetst bay mir

Refrain
Zog es mir nokh a mol
vayl ikh bin gern tsuhern di sheyne verter fun dir
Zog es mir nokh a mol
Vayl dayne reydn brengt freydn un git mir mut on a shir
Mayn harts, es vakst in mir atsindert fun groys freyd
Az ikh hob derlebt tsuhern fun dir azelkhe reyd
Zog es mir nokh a mol
Oy zog es mir nokh a mol
Oy, n'khomele, n'shomele
zog es mir nokh a mol

Translation

Tell it to me once again,
Your words bring happiness to my soul
Ask me, I'll do anything for you
I'd become your slave - anything
