Translation:

"Groom and Bride - Congratulations!" (x3)

"Drink to life; it's a wedding. Drink to life; with a glass of wine. Let's sing; it's a party. Let's dance; it should be joyful!"

"Play you musicians for the in-laws, for the sweet bride, for the beautiful groom! Play louder, so that nobody will hear the bride's mother crying!"

"Drink to life; shout Mazel Tov! Make a circle that whirls without an end! When you're lucky, who needs money? Sing l'chaim for the whole world!"

Julie has such a wonderful voice. Too bad we have trash that cannot sing and they call themselves singers. lady Kaka is not a singer. Just a whore on a drama binge.

I think the song is called "Trinkt Lechaim" (Drink to Life). The words at the beginning are an example of a nigun, which is a wordless Jewish melody sung on syllables such as "ya dai dai dai." That's what she's singing.
