Текст песни GOLEM - Grine Kuzine

Di Grine Kuzine.

Tsu Mir Iz Gekumen A Kuzine
Sheyn Vi Gold Iz Zi Geven, Di Grine
BEKELAKH VI ROYTE POMERANTSN
Fiselakh Vos Betn Zich Tsum Tantsn.

Herelakh VI Zaydn-Veb Gelokte
Tseyndelekh VI Perelakh Getokte
EYGELAKH VI HIML BLOY IN FRILING
Lipelekh Vi Karshelekh a tsviling.

Nisht GeGangen Iz Zi, Nor GeshPrungen
Nisht Geret Hot Zi, Nor Gezungen
Lebedik Un Freylekh Yede Mine -
Ot Aza Geven Iz Mayn Kuzine.

UN AZOY ARIBER TSEYNER YORN
Fun Mayn Kuzine Iz A Tel Gevorn
"Peides" Hot Zi Vokhenlang Geklibn
Biz Fun Ir Iz Gornisht Nit Geblibn.

HAYNT AZ IKH BAGEN MAYN KUZINE
Un Ikh Freg IR: S'Makhtsu EPES, Grine?
Ziftst Zi Op, Un Kh'leyen in Ir Mine:
Brenen Zol Colombus' es MEDINE!

There Came to Me a Green Cousin
And a beauty, and a green one.
Little Cheeks Like Red Oranges
Little Feet That Only Beg to Dance.

Und Dan Gekummen Meyne Nexdorke
Voz Zi Hot A Millinery Shtorke
A DZHOB HOT ZI GEHAD FOR MEYNE KUSINE!
A Zei Sheyn Iz Columbus'es Medineh!.)

(And then Came My Next-Door Neighbor
What She Had A Small Millenary Store
SHE HAD A JOB FOR MY COUSIN!
How Wonderful, Columbus's Country!)

And Now After Tens of Years,
My Cousin BECAME A WRECK,
(Work for) Paydays Took Their Toll
From Her, Nothing Good Remained ..

NOW WHEN RUN INTO MY COUSIN
And I Ask, how are you doing, Greenie?
SHE SIGHS AND I CAN READ IT IN HER EYES:
"Go to Hell, Columbus's Country."
