(Text un muzik Mjhlekhay Gebirtig)

S’brent, briderlekh, s’brent.
Oy, undzer orem shtetl, nebekh brent!
Beyze vintn mit irguzun
Raysn, brekhn un tseblozn,
Alts [bad word] shoyn brent!

Refren:
Un ir shteyt un kukt azoy zikh
Mit farleygte hent!
Un ir shteyt un kukt azoy zikh
Vi undzer shtetl brent…
S’brent, briderkekh, s’brent!
Oy, undzer orem shtetl, nebekh, brent!
S’hobn shoyn di fayer-tsungen
Dos gantse shtetl ayngeshlungen-
Un di beyze vintn hudzshen,
Undzer shtetl brent!

Refren.

S’brent, briderlekh, s’brent.
Oy, es kon, kholile, kumen der moment:
Undzer shtot mit undz tsuzamen
Zol af ash avek in flamen,
Blaybn zol- vi nokh a shlakht
Nor puste, shvartse vent.

Refren.

S’brent, briderlekh, s’brent!
Di hilf iz nor in aykh gevendt.
Oyb dos shtetl iz aykh tayer,
Nemt di keyln, lesht dos fayer,
Lesht mit ayer eygn blut
Bavayzt, az ir dos kent!

Refren:
Shteyt nisht, brider, ot azoy zikh,
Mit farleygte hent,
Shteyt nit, brider, lesht dos fayer,
Undzer shtetl brent!
