Balalaika is Russian traditional musical instrument. When I was a child, I remember my relatives spoken yeddish and singing this beautiful songn around the table during gathering for the meal. I am sure origin of this song Russian-Jewishl. Of course - it probably moved to Romania - very good indeed.

Yes,you're OK,the real origin of this song is undoublety RUSSIAN-JEWISH!

I didn't know that this nice yiddish song

was adopted as an anthem by a football

(soccer) club n Romania,as the romanian friend said. Happy to know indeed,that a Jewish melody is adapted and adopted by different cultures,don't you think?.Greetings from Buenos Aires.

Thanks for the comment, but the real origin of this song of love is an ancient Yiddish-Russian tune and means "play balalayka".

А что песню написали китайские евреи?

А твоя имитация балалайки - из Австравлии?

It's a jewish song on yiddish. "Tum balalaike". 'balalaike' ISN'T 'russian balalaika'! BALALAIKE is a sound-imitation word on yiddish.
