description

The lyrics were published in 1890 by the Workmen's Circle, a Jewish anarchist group that promoted Yiddish as a national language for Israel. They took a hit when Israel adopted Hebrew. Their Seattle HQ was on the site of New Hope Baptist church. (I have pile of their annual picnic flyers from 1932.) They have regrouped and rebranded as the Workers' Circle in NYC.

English version

And we are all brothers,
oy, oy, all brothers!
And we sing happy songs
oy, oy, oy!

And we act all together,
oy, oy, all together!
There’s nothing like it among anyone (else)
oy, oy, oy!

And we are all united
oy, oy, all united!
Though we are far too few,
oy, oy, oy!

And we do love one another
oy, oy, one another!
Like a groom and a bride,
oy, oy, oy!

And we are happy, cheerful,
oy, oy, happy, cheerful!
Singing songs, jumping for joy,
oy, oy, oy!
