Текст песни Tumbala-Lika — The Barry Sisters

Shteyt a bokher, un er trakht
Trakht un trakht a gantse nakht
Vemen tzu nemen un nisht farshemen
Vemen tzu nemen un nisht farshemen
Tumbala, Tumbala, Tumbalalaika
Tumbala, Tumbala, Tumbalalaika
Shpil balalaika, Tumbalalaika,
Shpil balalaika, Tumbalala
Meydl, meydl, kh’vil bay dir fregn,
Vos ken vaksn, vaksn on regn?
Vos ken brenen un nit oyfhern?
Vos ken benken, veynen on trern?
Narisher bokher, vos darfstu fregn?
A shteyn ken vaksn, vaksn on regn.
Libe ken brenen un nit oyfhern.
A harts ken benken, veynen on trern.
