Ray, here are the Yiddish words to Mayn Rue Plats. Thanks, CP, didn't know it was in the DT. I don't have my book with me so the transliteration may not be kosher. I think it's by Morris Rosenfeld, but I might be wrong.

MAYN RUE PLATS

Nit zuch mich vu di mirten grinen
Gefinst mich dortn nit mayn shats
Vu lebens velkn bay mashinen
Dortn iz mayn rue plats (2x)

Nit zuch mich vu fontanen shpritsn
Gefinst mich dortn nit mayn shats
Vu trern rinen, keyner kritsn
Dortn iz mayn rue plats (2x)

Nit zuch mich vu di feygl zingen
Gefinst mich dortn nit mayn shats
A shklaf bin ich, vu keytn klingen
Dortn iz mayn rue plats

Un libstu mich mit varer libe
To kum tsu mir, mayn guter shats
Un hayter oyf mayn harts dos tribe
Un mach mir zis mayn rue plats (2x)

Aloha,
Mark
