lyrics
Ekh! Rumenie, Rumenie, Rumenie…
Rumenie, Rumenie, Rumenie!
Geven amol a land a zise, a sheyne.
Ekh! Rumenie, Rumenie, Rumenie…
Rumenie, Rumenie, Rumenie!
Geven amol a land a zise, a fayne.
Dort tsu voynen iz a fargenign;
Vos dos harts glust
Dos kenstu krign;
A mamaligele, a pastramele, a karnatsele
Un a glezele vayn, aha…!
Ay, in Rumenie iz dokh git,
Fun keyn dayges veyst men nit.
Vayn trinkt men iberal,
Men farbayst mit kashtaval.
Hay, digadi dam…
Ay, in Rumenie iz dokh git,
Fun keyn zorgn veyst men nit.
Vayn trinkt men, s’meg zayn shpet,
Men farbayst a kastrovet.
Hay, digadi dam…
Oy gevald, ikh ver meshige!
Kh’lib nor brinz’e, mamalige;
Kh’tants un frey zikh biz der stelye,
Ven ikh es a patla-zhele!
Dzhing-ma, tay yidlti tam…
Zing, zing, tay didl-di-dam.
Ay, s’a fargenign,
Beser ken nit zayn!
Ay, a fargenign
Iz nor Rumeynish vayn.
Di Rumeyner trinken vayn
Un esn mamalige;
Ver es kisht zayn eygn vayb,
Ah, yener iz meshige!
Zing-may, tay yidl-di-dam,
Boom boom, tay yidl-di-dam,
Zing-zing, tay yidl-di-dam,
Bam-fa, tay yidl-di-dam,
Ay, s’a fargenign,
Beser ken nit zayn!
Ay, a fargenign
Iz nor Rumeynish vayn.
“Yokum purkon min shmayo”
Shteyt un kusht di kekhene, Khaye,
Ongeton in alte shkrabes,
Makht a kugel likoved Shabes.
Zets! Tay ti didl-di-tam…
Iz Moyshe-Khayim ongekumen
Dos beste kheylik tsugenumen;
Moyshe-Khayim, Borukh-Shmil -
Khapt a kitsl in der shtil.
Zets! Tay yidl-ti-tam…
Un dos meydl nebekh blozt zikh,
Un er vil,
Nor zi lozt nisht -
Tshu!
Ay, in Rumenie iz dokh git,
Fun keyn dayges veyst men nit.
Vayn trinkt men iberal,
Men farbayst mit kashtaval.
Zets! Tay yidl-ti-tam…
Ay, s’iz a mekhaye, beser ken nit zayn!
Ay, a fargenign iz nor Rumeynish vayn…
Oh! Romania, Romania…
Romania, Romania…
Once there was a land, sweet and lovely.
Oh! Romania, Romania…
Romania, Romania…
Once there was a land, sweet and fine.
To live there is a pleasure;
What your heart desires,
You can get;
A mamligele, a pastrami, a karnatsele
And a glass of wine, aha!
Ay, in Romania life is so good,
No-one knows of care.
Wine is drunk all over,
You snack on kashtaval.
Hay, digadi dam…
Ay, in Romania life is so good,
No-one knows of worries.
Wine is drunk, even if it’s late
You snack on a kastrovet.
Hay, digadi dam…
Oh my goodness, I’m going crazy!
I only like to eat brinz’e and mamalige;
I dance and rejoice up to the ceiling,
When I eat a patla-zhele!
Dzhing-ma…
Sing, sing….
Oh, it’s such a pleasure,
It couldn’t be better!
Oh, what a pleasure
To drink Romanian wine.
Romanians drink wine
And eat mamalige;
He who kisses his own wife
Ah, he’s the one who’s mad!
Zing-may…
Boom boom…
Sing, sing…
Bam-fa…
Oh, it’s such a pleasure,
It couldn’t be better!
Oh, what a pleasure
Is only Romanian wine.
“May salvation come from heaven”
Stop and kiss the cook, Khaye,
Dressed in old rags,
She’s making a pie for the Sabbath.
Zets! Tay ti didl-di-tam…
Moyshe-Khayim came along
And took the best piece;
Moyshe-Khayim, Borukh-Shmil -
Grab a tickle on the sly.
Zets! Tay yidl-ti-tam…
And the poor girl is sulking,
And he wants to,
But she won’t let him -
Tshu!
Ah, in Romania life is good,
No-one there has any cares.
Wine is drunk far and wide,
And one snacks on kashtaval.
Zets! Tay yidl-ti-tam…
Ah, it’s such a pleasure,
it couldn’t be better!
Ah, such a pleasure to enjoy only Romanian wine…

Daring Unique Hipsters, grandparents, children, everyone in between; all people find something to dance, cry and laugh to during a YID! performance....more
This is a richly layered composition- the music is wonderful- and the texts really work well with it. It feels like it's pushing Yiddish music forward while staying connected to the past.
I don’t have the gift of prophecy so I can’t predict the future- but I would not be surprised if years from now this will cunt among the classics of the repertoire of Yiddish music. Shamma Boyarin
