Rozhinkes mit mandlen

In dem beis hamikdosh
In the temple
In a vinkle cheider
In a little corner
Zitst di almone bas-tzion aleyn
Sits the widow, “Daughter of Zion”, alone
Ihr ben yochidl Yideln vigt zi keseider
Her only son Yidel, she rocks
Un zingt im tzum shlofn a lideleh sheyn:
Ay-lu-lu And sings him to sleep
with a pretty little melody: Ay-lu-lu
Unter Yidele’s vigele
Under Yidele’s cradle
Shteyt a klor-vayse tsigele
Is a little white goat
Dos tsigele iz geforn handlen
The goat is going to trade
Dos vet zine dayn baruf
That will be your calling
Rozhinkes mit mandlen Raisins and almonds
Shlof-zhe Yidele shlof
Sleep, little Yidel, sleep
