@ashrafbazan

It's all Yiddish but Yiddish is a heavily German based language so that's where the similarity comes from.

A scream, violence and a noise, a father in the forest looks for his children.

Children, children, where have you been? Have you already forgotten me?

Children, children, come home to me, since it makes me sad, sitting alone.

Father, father, we cannot go to you, as (while) the guard is still standing at the door

[haydthebear]

For anyone interested, I've transliterated the Yiddish:

A Geshrey, a Gevaldt, on a Gepilder, a Fawter in Valdt zucht zeine Kinder.

Kinder, Kinder, vu zent ir gevezen? Vaws oif mir hat ir shoyn fargessen? Kinder, Kinder, komt tzu mir Aheym. Vayl s’iz mir umetik tzu zitzn aleyn.

Fawter, Fawter, vi kan men geyn tzu dir, az der Shoymer shteyt dach bay der Tir.

If anyone would like the English translation or the Yiddish in Hebrew script, just ask ;)

[ashrafbazan]

what does that mean in English ?? plz

and i think there is German in this "zucht zeine Kinder" ^o) dunno !

[michaelandcarina]

@ashrafbazan Yiddish comes from the German term "Judaisch (yoo-DAY-isch)", the German term for Jewish. It is the language of many European-German Jews.

The only true water is Torah If you understand Torah you will never thirst again

[ChampstylesTLT]

@NatanelYaHu Well said!

[soukupb]

@NatanelYaHu what about the Bible?

[NatanelYaHu]

@soukupb Um the Torah is the Bible, the 1st 5 books on which the rest of the Bible is written. If you dont understand the Torah you wont under stand the rest. Torah is the foundation. If you build your house/beliefs with out a foundation your house will not stand.

[soukupb]

@NatanelYaHu I know i been studying it for 5 years just wanted to see your opinion about it.
