A yid iz amol gekumen keyn paris
Hot im zayner a bakenter gefirt afn yidishn
Beys oylem un dortn hobn zey gezen rotshilds
Keyver, mit a groyser sheyner matseyve
Kukt der yid, un kukt af der matseyve un zogt
Tsum bakentn "zeyst yankl: dos heyst gelebt"

Один аид приехал у Парыж. А там
Таке красивое могила Ротшильда
И вот он смотрит и таке себе
Думает: „Живут же люди!"

A Jew goes to Paris, and a friend of his takes him to the Jewish cemetery
And they see a Rothchild's grave, with a beautiful, gigantic monument on top, with a statue
And the Jew looks at the statue and says to his friend, "you see Yankl? That is living!"
