Oyfn veg shteyt a boym, Shteyt er ayngeboygn, Ale feygl funem boym Zaynen zikh tsefloygn. Dray keyn mayrev, dray keyn mizrekh, Un der resht - keyn dorem, Un dem boym gelozt aleyn Hefker far dem shturem. Zog ikh tsu der mamen: - her, Zolst mir nor nit shtern, Vel ikh, mame, eyns un tsvey Bald a foygl vern. . . lkh vel zitsn oyfn boym Un vel im farvign lbern vinter mit a treyst, Mit a sheynem nign. Zogt di mame: - nite, kind - Un zi veynt mit trern - Vest kholile oyfn boym Mir farfroyrn vern. Zog ikh: - mame, s’iz a shod Dayne sheyne oygn, Un eyder vos un eyder ven, Bin ikh mir a foygl. Veynt di mame: - ltsik, kroyn, Ze, um gotes viln, Nem zikh mit a shalikl, Kenst zikh nokh farkiln. Di kaloshn tu zikh on, S’geyt a sharfer vinter Un di kutshme nem oykh mit - Vey iz mir un vind mir. . . - Un dos vinter-laybl nem, Tu es on, du shoyte, Oyb du vilst nit zayn keyn gast Tsvishn ale toyte. . . Kh’heyb di fligl, s’iz mir shver, Tsu fil, tsu fil zakhn, Hot di mame ongeton Ir feygele, dem shvakhn. Kuk ikh troyerik mir arayn In mayn mames oygn, S’hot ir libshaft nit gelozt Vern mir a foygl. . . Oyfn veg shteyt a boym, Shteyt er ayngeboygn, Ale feygl funem boym Zaynen zikh tsefloygn. . .
