@Belson20 what you are saying about "ve glik" makes some sense, but I am not a 100% sure. l'khayim in yiddish is a noun and it means a "toast" or a "drink" it is not an adjective like in hebrew. also there are rules how to use "ve = and". eg. "sholem ve shalve", "khupe ve kedushin", "kharpe ve bushe" etc.. as you can see the last word is always a hebrew word. saying "l'chaim ve glik" is strange. I will check it with people who know more, but thanks for your suggestions and corrections.
le-chaim literally means to-life. it's used in hebrew in the exact way it's used in yiddish.
as you probably know it's mainly used while raising a toast and it can also be used as a noun or a part of an action like "at rosh ha-shana we all went to my grandma's and did le-chaim". the action of raising the glass and saying le-chaim is "to do le-chaim"/"makhn le-chaim".
trink le-chaim ve glik means "drink to life AND hapiness. it makes perfect sense.

There are 2 mistakes in your lyrics:
1. khatslokhe - *Hatslokhe
2. in the last phrase they sing "...trink trink trink l'chaim *ve glik" and not "mit glik".
"ve" means "and" in hebrew.

@Belson20 hatslokhe, you are right. I hear "mit glik" and "tsu/tsi glik" in different parts. "ve glik" makes no sense, since "glik" is not hebreic.

They only sing "ve" in the last phrase of the song 2:35. it almost seems like they wanted to emphasize it.
I'm not just making this up. I'm israeli so I can tell when a word of my language is pronounced :)

I forgot to refere to what you said ""ve glik" makes no sense, since "glik" is not hebreic."
based on that the entire yiddish language doesn't make sense, does it?
"a sheyner bokher", "khosen un kale", "meylek un malke" etc etc etc
