Mordche (Mordechai) Gebirtig
Hey little lambs come here faster
I’ll welcome you with a little song
A shepherd began singing
and a maiden joined him along
Listen little lambs to hear the story
of his happiness long ago
There are no more sheep to be heard
He longs for the maiden’s loving words
Hey little lambs hear the story’s end
how they wander blindly far and wide
Deep in the river dwells the shepherd
beside the river mourns his bride
