| Yiddish - THE YOUNGEST DAUGHTER'S WEDDING |
| |
 |
Louder, better! Make the circle bigger,
God has brought me good fortune and joy.
Rejoice, children, a whole night,
I'm marrying off my youngest daughter.
Stronger! Be happy,
You the Queen, I the King,
I have seen with my own eyes
how God has made me successful,
I'm marrying off my youngest daughter.
Itzik, you rascal! Why is your bow silent?
Shout at the musicians,
Are they playing or are they sleeping?
Rip all the strings in two,
I'm marrying off my youngest daughter.
Izik, Mazik, grandma is dancing the Kozatzka,
"No evil eye" - have a look, look
How she is tapping and stepping,
What a celebration, what a joy,
I'm marrying off my youngest daughter.
Dear Uncle Yossi, the good Auntie Sosye,
Sent me, for the groom's meal,
Endless expensive wine,
From the land of Israel,
I'm marrying off my youngest daughter.
Motl, Simon, the poor people have arrived.
Set for them the nicest table,
Fine wine and expensive fish,
Oh my daughter, give me a kiss!
I'm marrying off my youngest daughter. |
