This is the version I was looking for. When I was a child, I had a 78 rpm recording of Roumania, Roumania. I was very close to my father's father (a Litvak) who lived in the same town. We would sometimes visit my mother's mother (a Galitzianer) in another city. It was very rare that these two grandparents would be in the same room. Once they were both visiting us. First I played the record for my grandfather who was not super religious. He warned me not to play it for my grandmother because she was very religious and this record would be too risque for her. But I was naughty and played it anyway. Most of the Yiddish was too hard for me to understand but I remembered "Galitzianers makhen gelt, Litvaks kinder" which got a humorous response. Today I was looking for the words of the entire song. Many sites claimed they had the complete words but seemed incomplete to me. I did not know there was more than one version. Is there a transcription of the words of this version anywhere? The Yiddish lyrics with English translation would be even better.

at 4:52 Aaron Lebedeff sings two phrases in Russian. They are very colloquial: "Ay, shtot, shtot, shtot, shtot - [ya i sam devyatyj rot], Khotchet lyubit, khotchet dyevka, ni kopeki, dyengi nyet!" The general sense is:" Why! My family is big and I am in a poor condition! Make your choice! I have no money a cent!" Anyway, the singer pronounces these Russian words with proper intonation as if he drives his hard bargain in a trade. The performance of this song is really an artistic masterpiece!

The singer in the version uploaded here is Moishe Oysher, born in Lipcani, Bessarabia (now Moldova) and was well known among Jewish communities in The U.S. and South America as Cantor, Singer and Star of Yddish movies.

@lsmart 7 лет назад

Sir, even if you did not notice the title of the upload, it should have been rather easy to identify from the singer's voice that it is the great Aaron Lebedoff, and NOT the likewise unforgettable Moishe Oysher. Indeed, this was literally Lebedoff's theme song, like Nessun Dorma to Luciano Pavarotti. While Oysher was very flexible and also great in Yiddish theatrical songs, his voice was about three times as hefty as Lebedoff's. The only phrase on which one might reasonably confuse the two singers is in the high note at 5:20, when he artificially bulks up his voice.

@charlesnsiegel 11 лет назад

Yes, it is a romance language, descended from Latin, like Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and French. But almost all of the song (except for three lines in Romanian) is in Yiddish, which is related to German.

This is a much more complicated rendition that the other version he recorded. Moreover, the song was considered quite racy and almost dirty for it's time. I know the song well but never have I heard so many unfamiliar verses added to it. It's a difficult song to bring off, but Lebedeff nails it.

@galolito 8 лет назад

+Larry Mitchell Don't you wish he had been filmed singing this version? Such energy! Since finding it I've been playing in the morning to wake up. Worth two pots of coffee.

@Zva26 8 лет назад

+galolito - I am able to understand SOME of it, but not enough of it. I truly don't understand how he managed to pull this off. The earlier 1941 version is downright "tame" next to this one. I heard an interview with him a few years ago and was shocked to hear that he spoke English with a British accent. He had quite a career in Europe, China, and in the Yiddish Theater. He was also an accomplished classical concert pianist who specialized in Mozart, Beethoven, and Brahms. He lived a good and long life, and was appreciated by many in his time. But THIS version of Rumania is positively definitive.

@Decebal1906 8 лет назад

+Larry Mitchell The ,,unfamiliar verses" are in fact verses in Romanian language.

@Zva26 8 лет назад

+gabriel ion - Thanks for adding the final piece of the puzzle! I understand Yiddish fairly well, and I've known this song since I was a kid, but this additional verses stymied me to the point of distraction, though I like the "sound" of the words. I'm amazed that Lebedeff could bring this off. He DOES allude to the city of Bucharest, which, of course, is the Romanian capital. But then he reverts back to Jewish. Whatever, it's an amazing rendition.

@Decebal1906 8 лет назад

Larry Mitchell With pleasure. In ,,Mémoires des Juifs de Roumanie" (Chebana/Mercier Mure-Ravaud, p.22) this song is described as a very popular folk-song sung by the Jews of Romania emigrated to Israel, heavy with great nostalgia for ,,the good life" they had once known during the ,,better" interbellum period and which omits any hint of the oppression forced upon them by the Romanian state prior to what was seen by many as this ,,Golden Era". Those who remembered this ,,good life" (somewhat idealized), passed their memories through stories and songs such as this on to their children and grandchildren who, sooner or later, would forget the Romanian language and the ,,beautiful Carpathian country".

Jews had 2 speak Russian Romanian and Ukrainian if they lived near Romanian border + wanted 2 do well in any kind of business and often married Jews from Romania (my grandmother was from \Bessarabia which was in Romania at the time)as my grandfather who was from Podolia in Ukraine did. Therefore songs included words from more than 1 language as Jews adopted names of foods in different languages into Yiddish depending where they lived. e.g. Perogi, Varanaka: Perogi is Polish + Varanaka Ukrainian.

Yes, Rick, Romanian (or limba română in the language itself) is a Latin-derived language related closely to languages such as Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese. It has the distinction of being the only Romance language still spoken in eastern Europe, with official status in Romania, Moldova, and parts of Serbia and Greece; it is also recognised in Hungary as a minority language and spoken in Ukraine, Albania, and Macedonia. unravellingmag.com/articles/romanian-the-forgotten-romance-language/
