Yiddish lyrics.

shteyt zikh dort in gesele,
shtil fartrakht a hayzele.
drinen oyfn boydem-shtibl
voynt mayn tayer reyzele

yedn ovnt farn hayzl
drey ikh zikh arum
kh'gib a fayf un ruf oys:
"reyzl, kum, kum, kum!"

efnt zikh a fentsterl
vakht oyf s'alte hayzele
un bald klingt in shtiln gesl
a zis kol, s'redt reyzele:

-- nokh a vayle vart, mayn liber,
bald vel ikh zayn fray,
gey zikh nokh a por mol iber;
eyns, tsvey, dray.

gey ikh mir a freylekher,
zing un knak mir niselekh,
her ikh oyf di treplekh shpringen
ire drobne fiselekh.

shoyn arop fun letstn trepl,
kh'nem zi lib arum,
kh'gib ir shtil a kush in kepl
- kum kum kum!

kh'vel dir zogn, Dovedl,
zolst aroyf nit fayfn mer.
-- her, er fayft shoyn
-- zogt di mame zi iz frum; s'fardrist zi zer.

fayfn, zogt zi, iz nit yidish;
past es bloyz far zey.
gib a tseykhn prost oyf yidish,

kh'vel aroyf nit fayfn mer;
deroyf gib ikh a shvuele.
dir tsulib vel ikh afile
vern frum, mayn tsnuele

vel ikh vern frum, mayn reyzl,
vi di mame frum,
yedn shabes geyn in klayzl.
kum kum kum!

kh'gloyb es dir mayn libenker,
d'rum dafar dir dovidl
strikh ikh a sheyn tsviln-zekl
mit a mogn-dovidl

ven gefaln s'vet in klayzl
zogn zolst du zey
"dos hot gestrikt mayn libe rayzl
eyns, zvey, dray!"

a dank far der matonele;
ikh lib azoy dikh reyzele,
ikh lib dos gesl,
lib di mame, lib dos alte hayzele.

lib di treplekh fun dem hayzl;
geyst oyf zey arum.
her, di mame ruft shoyn, Reyzl!
kum kum kum.

gey ikh mir a freylekher,
zing un knak mir niselekh,
her ikh af di treplekh loyfn

vider shteyt fartrakht dos gesl,
s'hayzl vider shtum.
kum tsu mir in kholem,
reyzl, kum, kum, kum!
