yeah, play it for Hamas and then in Iran. AND WE'RE STILL HERE IN OUR FOREFATHERS' COUNTRY AND ALWAYS WILL BE

overwhelming! -Aaron Lebedeff

Lew Ward-Baker

This became a national hit when Arthur Godfrey, a popular radio personality, fell in love with it and played it regularly. This and Bei Mir Bist Du Schon brought Yiddish to the American public of the Thirties and Forties.

THIS, is the definitive version....both for sound and his voice. They should play it for Hamas -- they'd love it.

Gerry Epstein

i still have this 78 rpm. I am third generation. There is something about this melody that reminds me of the tough slogging in the Shtels of Zablodow. Thank Hashem, my Bubbe & Zaidi were able to make it to Canada during the None is Too Many period First 1929 , then 1935.

Rumania, RumaniaOh! Rumania, Rumania, Rumania …Once there was a land, sweet and lovely.Oh! Rumania, Rumania, Rumania …Once there was a land, sweet and fine.To live there is a pleasure;What your heart desires you can get;A mamalige, a pastrami, a karnatzl,And a glass of wine, aha … !Ay, in Rumania life is so good;No one knows of care;Everywhere they’re drinking wine -And having a bite of kashtaval.Hay, digadi dam …Ay, in Rumania life is so good;No one knows of worry.They drink wine, though it’s late;And have a bite of kastrovet.Hay, digadi dam …Oh, my, help, I’m going crazy!I care only for brinze and mamaligeI dance and jump up to the ceilingWhen I eat a patlazhele.Dzing ma, tay yidldi tam …What a pleasure, what could be better!Oh, the only delight is Rumanian wine.Rumanians drink wineAnd eat mamalige;And he who kisses his own wife,Is the one who’s crazy.Zets, dzing ma, tay yidl di tam …“May salvation come from heaven … “Stop and kiss the cook, Khaye,Dressed in rags and tatters;She makes a pudding for the Sabbath.Zets! Tay ti didl di tam …Moyshe Khayim comes alongAnd takes away the best part;Moyshe Khayim, Borukh Shmil -Tickle her on the sly.Zets! Tay tidl di tam …And the girl pouts, alas,Seems unwilling, but allows it.Tshu!It’s good to kiss a lassWhen she’s sweet sixteen;When one kisses an old main,She begins to grumble.Zets! Tay yidl di dam …What a pleasure, what could be better!Oh, the only delight is Rumanian wine …

I still have the 78 -- grew up listening to this. I remember my mother who, unlike me, actually understood Yiddish, laughing at parts of this song

@kolkersamoil Хорошие воспоминания для вас

Samoil Kolker

Я не слышал никого,кто так пел о тех краях.где родился и вырос. Произношение,мелодия,выражения-всё возвращает в детство,в книги Шолом Алейхема..

Love the song, love the artist, love the country! The first Yddish Theater was in Iasi and the first recordings of Klezmer music (on wax records) were made in Bucuresti-Bucharest (Romania). Also the Israeli anthem is on a Romanian folkloric melody (i.e. Cucuruz), and the Israeli national dance hora comes from Romania as well. The Rumanim ole hadas were the second largest group of Zionists in Israel. God Bless!

John Shipp

Rumanians drink wine and eat cornmeal mush - and whoever kisses his own wife is crazy! Alex Hassilov (The Limelighters) did a killer version of this on one of their albums.

@cruxrual Oy I like she - on my channel too - youtube.com/watch?v=HsdLOisp2xs

Laurentiu Ursu

@ruthzitron he was born in Galitsia (now Ukraine), he emigrated in Romania, then he left for NY. This is a praise for the romanian way of life. There are a lot of romanian words (pronounced uniquely by him) like mamelige (mamaliga), cashcaval, castravetsi, and so on. He spook English with a similar unique amprent. He has a song named "I like she". Another famous jewish-romanian in the showbiz was Avraam Goldfaden
