10 Dec 01 - 09:44 PM (#607596) Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Old Gypsy/White Christmas in Yid From: Genie Áine, Is this sung to the tune of "White Christmas?" I'm having a lot of trouble fitting the words to that tune. Can you help (e.g., put "/" in to separate measures or maybe post the "White Christmas" lyrics with the Yiddish words that correspond to them above or below each line? I'd love to add this to my Chanukah program. Thanks, Genie |

I recorded "Home on the Range" in Yiddish on my CD. |
