Papir Iz Dokh Vays


Papir iz dokh vays un tint iz dokh shvarts

Tsu dir mayn zis-lebn tsit dokh mayn harts.

Ikh volt shtendig gezesn dray teg nochanand

Tsu kushn dayn sheyn ponim un tsu haltn dayn hand.


Nekhtn baynacht bin ikh oyf a khasene geven,

Fil sheyne meydelech hob ich dort gezen.

Fil sheyne meydelech - tsu dir kumt nisht gor -

Mit dayn shvartse eygelech un dayn shvartse ho


Dayn talye, dayn mine, dayn eydeler fason,

In hartsn brent a fayer, me zet es nit on;

Nito aza mentsh, vos filn vi es brent--

Der toyt un dos lebn iz bay got in di hent.



Paper is but White


Paper is but white and ink is but black,

My heart is drawn to you, my sweet love.

I could sit for three days one after another

Just kissing your sweet face and holding your hand.


Last night I went to a wedding

And I saw many beautiful girls there.

Many beautiful girls, but none of them can compare to you

With your black eyes and your black hair.


Your figure, your face, your gentle ways

Have kindled a flame in my heart,

but no one can see it burning.
