Original studio performance of Ikh bin e meidel in de joren

lyrics

[English translation shown below]
Ikh bin a meidel in de jóren
vos hosti mir in kop fardreit
Ikh volt shoin lang a kaleh gevoren
un efsher khasene gehot


Un efsher geit es dir in nadan
mayn mama veit farkoifen a shtib
Nu lomir beide khasene hoben
vayl ikh dikh hob take lib

Un efsher geit es dir in yikhes
mayn zeide iz gewesen a rov
Nu lomir beide khasene hoben
un zol shoin nemen a sof


I am becoming an old maid already
and you've been fooling me
I've long wanted to be a bride
and get married

Maybe you're concerned about the dowry
My mother will sell a house
let us both marry
because I love you so much

Maybe you're concerned about pedigree
My grandfather was a rabbi
let us both marry
and let that be an end of it
