My Yiddishe Maidele

English translation by Judy Hirsch
November, 2004 for Evey's birthday

My Yiddishe Maidele
So pretty, she's shain
My yiddishe maidele
She's got charm--meaning chain
Her sparkling teeth, - lovely hair
She's truly beyond compare
There's no other like her
She's my kind of gal
You may try other lands in vain
Spend millions but still it's plain
She's my one and only
With that yiddishe chain
