Mayn Yiddishe Meydele

Music: Sholom Secunda
Lyrics: Anshel Schorr

Froyen fil hob ikh gezen 
Bay yedn folk zaynen zay farsheydn 
Nor keyne iz nit azoy sheyn, vi di froy bay dem Yidn 
Yidish meydl mit ir blik, farkishift bald in gantsen dikh
Un gistu nor oyf ir a [bad word]  
Filstu a Yidishn tam in zikh

Refrain 
Mayn Yidishe meydele 
Zi iz azoy sheyn 
Mayn Yidishe meydele 
Mit ir Yidishn kheyn 
Fun gold ire herelekh 
Di tseyn ner vi perelekh 
Nor a Yidishe meydl ken zayn azoy sheyn 
Ir vet far milyonen 
Bay andre natsyonen nit gefinen a meydl 
Mit a Yidishn kheyn

(My Jewish girl, 
How lovely she is! 
Search the world over and you'll never discover another
like her and with her charm)

English Refrain from sound clip:

beauty so fine and rare 
That's my Yiddishe girl 
With charms that you simply cannot compare 
That's my Yiddishe girl 
Hair golden and swinging free 
smile open -- a sight you should see 
There is noone more dear to me 
Than my Yiddishe girl 
Search now, search forever 
The world over wherever 
But you won't find another 
Like my Yiddishe girl
