lyrics

(Russian and Yiddish followed by English translation)

Spi, mladenets moy prekrasnyi, bayushki-bayu,
Tikho svetit mesiats yasnyi v kolybel’ tvoyu.
Stanu skazyvat’ ya skazki, pesenku spoyu,
Spi, dremli, zakryvshi glazki , bayushki-bayu.

Unter tokhterkes vigele
Steyt a vayse tsigele
Di tsigele vet forn handlen,
Brengen rozhinkes mit mandlen
Ay-le lyu-le lyulin’ke, mazl dir afulin’ke

* * *
Sleep my beautiful baby, lullaby,
The bright moon shines calmly into your cradle.
I will be telling you fairytales, I will sing you a song.
Sleep, slumber, close your eyes, lullaby.

Under a daughter’s cradle
A white goat stands.
The goat will go to the market
And bring you raisins and almonds.
Lullaby, lullaby, and be happy so much.
