Ikh hob dikh tsufil lib
Ikh trog oyf dir kayn has
Ikh hob dikh tsufil lib
Tsu zayn oyf dir in kaas

Ikh hob dikh tsufil lib
Tsu zayn oyf dir gor beyz
A nar ikh heys
Ikh veys. Ikh hob dikh lib

Kh’hob dir mayn lebn avekgegebn
Mayn harts un mayn neshome
Ikh bin krank, nor mayn gedank
Trakht nit fun nekome

Ikh hob dikh tsufil lib
Tsu zayn oyf dir gor beyz
A nar ikh heys
Ikh veys. Ikh hob dikh lib

I love you much too much
I've know it from the start
But yet my love is such
I can't control my heart

I love you much too much
I ask myself what for
Then, darling, when we touch
I love you more

Perhaps I hold your heart too tightly
But who am I to say
If I should hold it lightly
It might slip away

Ikh hob dikh tsufil lib
Ikh trog oyf dir kayn has
A nar ikh heys
Ikh heys
Ikh veys
Ikh hob dikh lib
