Lyrics

Shteyt a bocher, shteyt un tracht
tracht un tracht a gantze nacht.
Vemen tsu nemen un nit far shemen
vemen tsu nemen un nit far shemen.
Tumbala, tumbala, tumbalalaika
Tumbala, tumbala, tumbalalaika
tumbalalaika, shpiel balalaika
tumbalalaika - freylach zol zayn.
Meydl, meydl, ch' vel bay dir fregen
Vos kan vaksn, vaksn on regn?
Vos kon brenen un nit oyfhern?
Vos kon benken, veynen on treren?
Narisher bocher, vos darfstu fregn?
A shteyn ken vaksn, vaksn on regn.
Libeh ken brenen un nit oyfhern.
A harts kon benkn, veynen on treren.
