Blayb gezunt mir, Kroke! Blayb zhe mir gezunt. S'vart di fur geshpant shayn fur mayn hoyz S'traybt der wild soyne, Vi m'traybt a hunt, Mit akhzoriyes mikh fun dir aroys.
Mordechai Gebirtig (1877-1942), Yiddish poet and songwriter from Kraków.
Farewell for me, my Kraków! Farewell, my country. The harnessed cart is waiting outside. The wild enemy is driving me out like a dog to destinies unknown.
