Ikh shtey unter a bokserboym,
a bokserboym,
Tsu im derklibn kh'hob zikh koym,
ikh hob zikh koym.
Ikh zits unter a faygnboym,
a faygnboym,
Arum iz grin, arum iz groym,
s'iz grin un groym.
Ikh lig unter a mandlboym,
a mandlboym,
Er iz geven bay mir in troym,
bay mir in troym.
A bokserboym,
A faygnboym,
A mandlboym,
In oyg a trer halt eyn zikh koym,
halt eyn zikh koym.
I stand beneath a carob tree,
a carob tree,
I got there, but not easily
not easily.
I sit beneath a fig tree,
a fig tree,
and all around is green and free,
is green and free.
I lie beneath an almond tree,
an almond tree,
It appeared a dream to me,
a dream to me.
A carob tree,
a fig tree,
an almond tree -
I stop my tears, not easily,
not easily.
