Rumania, Rumania
(Aaron Lebedeff)


Ekh, Rumenye, Rumenye, Rumenye
Rumenye, Rumenye, Rumenye
Geven a mol a land a zise, a sheyne

Ekh, Rumenye, Rumenye, Rumenye
Rumenye, Rumenye, Rumenye, Rumenye
Geven a mol a land a zise, a fayne

Dort tsu voynen iz a fargenigen
Vos dos harts glust dir, dos kenstu krign
A mameligele, a pastramele
A karnatsele, un a glazele vayn, aha!

In Rumenye iz dokh gut
fun keyn dayges veyst men nit
Vayn trinkt men iberal
me farbayst mit kashtaval
Hay digi digi dam, digi digi digi dam
Hay digi digi digi digi digi dam
Hay digi digi dam, digi digi digi dam
Hay digi digi digi digi digi dam

In Rumenye iz dokh gut
fun keyn zorgn veyst men nit
Vayn trinkt men iberal
me farbayst a kastravet
Hay digi digi dam, digi digi digi dam
Hay digi digi digi digi digi dam
Hay digi digi dam, digi digi digi dam
Hay digi digi digi digi digi dam

Oy vey g'vald, ikh ver meshige
kh'lib nor brinze, mamelige
Kh'tants un frey zikh biz der stelye
ven ikh es a patlozhele
Dzingma, tay tidl ti dam
dzingma, tay tidl ti dam
dzingma, tay tidl ti dam
dzingma, tay tidlt ti dam
Ay, s'iz a mekhaye, beser ken nit zayn
Ay, a fargenign iz nor Rumenish vayn

Di Rumener trinken vayn

Ver es kusht zayn eygn vayb
o yener iz meshige
Dzingma, tay tidl ti dam
dzingma, tay tidl ti dam
dzingma, tay tidl ti dam
dzingma, tay tidlt ti dam
Ay, s'iz a mekhaye, beser ken nit zayn
Ay, a fargenign iz nor Rumenish vayn

A ..
Yokum purkon min shemaye

Ongeton in alte shkrabes

Zets! tay tidl di dam
Zets! tay tidl di dam
Zets! tay tidl di dam
Zets! tay tidl di dam
Zets! tay tidl di dam!
