Di Elter [English translation]

S'iz di elter nit geshmak, zogn ale zkeynim.

Af di dermbes kumt di hak, in a tog a sheynem...

Ven di dembes vern alt, faln zey in mitn vald.

Vert der shtoltser odler alt, iz zayn shvung a lign.

Un der alter leyb in vald zitst un khapt zikh flign.

Shtarke leybn vernt alt, faln zey in mitn vald.

"Af der elter iz nit gut!", zogt men af der elter.

Kelter vert dos heyse blut, foyglen vern elter.

Flinke foyglen vern alt, faln zey in mitn vald.

Af der elter vert men alt, kiler vert der flaker.

Nor der vayn, ven ven er iz alt, iz er nokh geshmaker.

Nor der alter vayn iz gut, zol er varemen dos blut!

Vet mayn harts nit vern groy, vet mayn vort nit kiln.

Vet in veg der kalter toy, mayn gezang nit shtiln.

Oyb kh'vel muzn alt shoyn zayn, vil ikh alt zayn vi der vayn!

Biz di elter hot ir shtoyb af mayn kop farlorn,

tut dem altn vayn a hoyb far di yunge yorn,

farn eybik-grinem vald, farn mentsh, vos vert nit alt!
