LOMIR ZIKH IBERBETN
LET'S MAKE UP

 

 

Lomir zikh iberbetn, iberbetn,
Shtel dem samovar.
Lomir zikh iberbetn,
Zayzhe nit kayn nar.

Lomir zikh iberbetn, iberbetn,
Koyf mir a por marantsn.
Lomir aikh iberbetn,
Lomir geyn tantsn.

Lomir zikh iberbetn, iberbetn,
Voszhe shteystu bay der tir?
Lomir zikh iberbetn
Gib a kuk oyf mir.

Lomir zikh iberbetn, iberbetn,
Shem zikh, Etl-Dvore!
Lomir zikh iberbetn,
Di tsayt iz an aveyre.

Lomir zikh iberbetn, iberbetn,
Koyf a por pistashkes.
Lomir zikh iberbetn,
Shenk mir dayne laskes.

Lomir zikh iberbetn, iberbetn,
Genug shoyn zayn vi goyim.
Lomir zikh iberbetn,
Lomir shraybn tnoyim.

Let's make up, make up,
Heat the samovar.
Let's make up,
Don't be a fool.

Let's make up, make up,
Buy a couple of oranges for me.
Let's make up,
Let's go dancing.

Let's make up, make up,
Why do you stand at the door?
Let's make up,
Look at me.

Let's make up, make up,
You should be ashamed, Etl-Dvore.
Let's make up,
It's a sin to waste the time.

Let's make up, make up,
Buy some pistachios.
Let's make up,
Grant me your favors.

Let's make up, make up,
Let's stop acting like strangers.
Let's make up,
Let us get engaged.
