In dem bays hamikdosh,
In a vinkl chayder
Zitzt di almone bas Tziyon aley.
Ir ben yochidl Yidele vigt si k'seyder.

Un zingt im tzum shlofen a lidele sheyn.
Unter Yidele's vigele
Shteyt a klor veis tzigele.
Dos tzigele is geforen handlen;

Dos vet zein dein beruf.
Rozinkes mit mandlen.
Shlof-zhe Yidele, shlof.

In the room of the temple,
In a cosy corner
There sits a widow all alone.
With her only little child she rocks gently
While singing a lovely lullaby.
And beneath the cradle
There¹s a little pure white goat,
The little goat went out looking
Just as you'll do some day,
Bringing raisins and almonds.
Sleep sweet baby sleep.
