Di Shpanishe kholere [English translation]

Ikh gey mir arim in strit fartrakht

Say bay tug in say bay nakht.

In mayn hartzn kokht dus blit,

Ze’endik vi mentshn faln in strit.

REFRAIN:

Vayl di gantse velt iz yetst in trobl,

In yeder eyner zikht dem knobl.

Mentshn zitsn in hoyz mit der neveyre,

Zey hobn moyre far der Shpanisher kholere.

Nemt mayn edvays in seyft zikh fin dem trobl,

Trinkt a glezl vayn in est dem knobl.

REFRAIN

Der Daytsh iz oykh a groyser diplomat!

Er hot gevolt farnikhtn di velt vi a rats;

Wilson hot ober genimen zikh di ere

In geshikt dem Daytsh di Shpanishe kholere.

REFRAIN

Sobveys, kars, gepakt oykh fil mit mentshn;

Ikh bet bay dir, oy Got, di zolst indz bentshn!

Nem fin indz oykh di neveyre

In hit indz up fin der Shpanisher kholere.

REFRAIN

Barbers loyfn arim azoy vi di nyankes;

Fin hoyz tsi hoyz shteln zey ayedn bankes.

Zey aleyn trugn arim di neveyre;

Zey danken Got es halt on di kholere!

REFRAIN

Mikh tsi hern zingen is nisht kayn vinder;

Mentshn, past nor oyf of ayere kinder.

Di froyen in Eyrope zenen geblibn vi ofn yakor,

In di mener in Amerike brenen vi a flaker
