(By Woodie Guthrie’s mother-in-law the poet Aliza Greenblatt)


Undzer tish shteyt vays geshpreyt; Di zilber laykhter, di arbe koyses. Farn Seder alts
shoyn greyt. Shmire matse un kharoyses. In vaysn kitl ongeton, Oyfn veykhn hesevbet.
Zitst der tate oybnon. Un di mame bay der zayt. Un mir fregn di fir kashes, "Ma nistano
halaylo haze, Mikol haleylos?"
Dertseylt der tate tsyber mayses. Un mir, fargafte hern oys; "Avodim hoyinu." Knekht
zenen mir geven. Baym roshe Paro in Mitsrayim; Undzer tsur hot got derzen. Fun
knekht-shaft Undz geton bafrayen.
Me trinkt a koyse, Me makht hamoytsi Un me hoybt shoyn on dem tish. Men tunkt dem
morer in kharoyses Un me nemt zikh tsu dem tish.
Der tate zingt nokh, er iz freylekh. Un er shmeykhlt azoy lib; Di mame brengt madaney
memelkh Un mir dakht es tantst di shtub.
Der kos Eliyohu a fuler shteyt Mit roytn finkldikn vayn; Undzer tir iz ofnt breyt. Eliyohu
hanovi kumt arayn.
