Ketzele Baroiges lyrics

Vus bisti, ketsele, baroygez

In vus zhe geysti upgelozt di nuz?

In efsher vilsti visn mayn yikhes

Finvanen ikh shtam aroys?

Mayn tate iz a shmarovoznik

Oy, in di mame ganvet fish in mark,

Oy, in mayn brider iz a kartyozhnik,

Zoln zey ale zayn gezint in shtark!

Vus bisti, ketsele, baroygez

In vus zhe geysti upgelozt di nuz?

In efsher vilsti visn mayn yikhes

Finvanen ikh shtam aroys?

Der feter iz geshtanen in di rogn,

Oy, in di bobe a hendlerke in gas,

In eyn brider zitst in ostrogn,

In di shvester tra-la-la-la-la...

Farvus zhe bisti azoy ungeblusn,

Ikh bet dokh kim tsi mir arayn in shtib,

Oy, vus zhe toyg dir bluzn mit di huzn

Oy, iz dokh, dushe, х'hob dikh azoy lib!

Iz zay nit, ketsele, of mir baroygez,

In gey zhe nit aropgelozt di nuz,

Vayl di veyst ingantsn mayn yikhes,

Finvanen ikh shtam - yo,

Finvanen ikh shtam

Finvanen ikh shtam - aroys!
