S'brent gold oyf di beymer ... | Burning gold is the arbor ... |
Far alts vert getsolt: | All debts are paid off: |
far bliung - mit velkung, | For blossoming - with wilting, |
far velkung - mit gold | For wilting - with gold |
fun sheynkeyt geheymer .... | Of a secret splendor ... |
S'brent gold oyf di beymer ... | Burning gold is the arbor ... |
