Shteyt a bocher, shteyt un tracht
Tracht un tracht a gantze nacht

Meydl, meydl, ch'vel bay dir fregen
Vos kan vaksn, vaksn on regn?
Vos kon brenen un nit oyfhern?
Vos kon benken, veynen on treren?

Narisher bocher, vos darfstu fregn?
A shteyn ken vaksn, vaksn on regn
Libeh ken brenen un nit oyfhern
A harts kon benkn, veynen on treren
