Let's sing, kidsLomir zinger kinderlekh
And let’s have a good time,A zemerl tsuzamen,
A little tune, a joyful one,A nigndl, a freylekhn,
With words full of cheer.Mit verterlekh von gramen.
Mom's cooking up some noodle soup,Di mame kokht a lokshn zup,
With matzo balls and dumplings.Mit kashe un kneydlekh.

Come the holiday of Purim,Kum der yom tov purim,
We’ll play with our dreidels.Veln mir shpiln zikh in dreydlekh.

Once upon a time our rabbi,A mol iz unzer rebenyu,
Walked under the stars,Gegangen unter begn,
Once upon a time he started to dance,Mit a mol heybt on tsu plyukhen,
In the pouring rain,Ongisn a regn,
He called the rabbi to the table,Shrayn de rebe tsu der khmare,
Here to drink some water,Her oyf gisn vaser,
All the Hasidim are out and about, butZaynen ale khsidim trukn aroys, nor
The rabbi is a real miracle.Der rebe is aroys a naser.

They say in the town of ChelmMen zogt az in dem shtetl khelem
Only fools reside,Lebt nor naronem,
If we’re the wise onesOyb mir zenen di kluge
We’ve got a pretty face,Hobn mir a sheynem ponim,
The fools laugh day and night,Di khelmer lakhn tog un nakht,
While the wise guys are in the streets,Oyf tsu lokheys di gazlonim,
And say, who’s the foolish one,Un zog zhe, ver is narishe,
Who are the wise men.Ver zenen di khakhomim.
