This song is so very beautiful! I sometimes shed a tear when I listen to this and reflect upon the lost world of European Jewish culture ... forever gone with the wind. In any case I would to make a pilgrimage to Kishinev, Bessarabia, where my ancestors were from (now Chisinau, Moldova).

Part one:

On the hearth a little fire is burning,

And it is hot in the house,

And the rebbe is teaching the little children.

The Aleph Bet.

Study, children, with great interest,

That is what I tell you;

He who'll know his lessons first,

Will get a banner for a prize. (Refrain)

[helueb]

part two: When you get older, children, You will understand that this alphabet Contains the tears and the weeping of our people. (Refrain) When you grow weary, children And burdened with exile, You will find comfort and strength within this Jewish alphabet. (Refrain) Refrain: See now children, remember dear ones, What you've learned here; repeat it again and again Aleph with kametz is "o"! Greetings from a german.

Oyfn Pripetchik en Yiddish (escrito por Mark Warshavsky) אױפֿן פּריפּעטשיק "Oyfn pripetchik brent a fayerl, un in shtub is heys. Un der rebe lernt kleyne kinderlakh dem alef-beyz." "Zet zhe kinderlakh, gedenkt zhe, tayere, vos ir lernt do. Zogt zhe nokh a mol un take nokh a mol: "Komets-alef: o!"" "Lernt, kinder, mit groys kheyshek, Azoy zog ikh aykh on, Ver s'vet gikher fun aykh kenen ivre, Der bakumt a fon."

[Isan0870]

En español: En la fogata una pequeña llama aparece Y el calor se expande en la casa Y el Rabbi le enseña a los niños pequeños el Aleph-bet. (ABC hebreo) Escuchen cuidadosamente y recuerden pequeños, recuerden lo que están aprendiendo ahora, Y repitanlo una vez y otra vez y otra vez, "Komets-alef: o!" Estudien pequeños, estudien con gran deseo, Les digo esto, aquél que más rápido aprenda la lección, recibirá un premio.

8 Feb'08 /I rented Steven Spielberg's epic masterpiece of filmmaking, 'Schindler's List', a week or so ago. This song is heard during the 'liquidation' of the Ghetto in Krakow during the Holocaust.. I wept and wept...I remember my mother singing this song, and crying because it reminded her of HER mother. (my grandmother).

What a beautiful melody, and the lyrics are heartbreaking. Your photos with this music are wonderful. Thanks for sharing. (are you the singer, too?)

[isabellamore]

Thank you for sharing with us. I was born in Poland (Wroclaw) both of my parents were holocaust survivor; they lost their entire family. On June 2007 I had traveled to Poland it was my first visit since I had left it as 6yo. I was in Krakow had visited the places that you are showing in this video.

Thank you so much for posting this. My father was a Polish Jew, a survivor of the holocaust. He was from Gorlitze. This reminds me of a wonderful memory I have of sitting in the back of bis tailer store and singing Ofyn Priperchic.
