My friend Mrs Lev sent me a link to this video (click). Click here for another video, with a particularly good clarinet part.

HUDL MITN SHTRUDL (Aaron Lebedeff) "Oh Hudl, Hudl, Hudl, What's up with your strudel? It's delicious; I really love it. I don't need any meat or stew, for I've had enough of them. Oh Hudl, Hudl, serve the strudel. Serve it." I have a landsman named Dudl, who has a wife named Hudl, and Hudl-Dudl live together really well. And Dudl's pretty wife Hudl bakes an outstanding strudel. What a great pleasure as it melts in your mouth. Every Friday, when Dudl has a bit of time, he comes home to his wife and he shouts: "Oh Hudl, Hudl, Hudl …" My landsman Dudl has a boarder, who's in love with his Hudl, for she cooks him a very good supper. And the boarder, as should be, delights in the supper, and he truly devours Hudl with his eyes. And when this Hudl serves the tea, he smiles and says to her: "Oh Hudl, Hudl, Hudl, bring your strudel to the table. It's delicious; I love it so much. It's quite a delicacy, as it goes down so smoothly. Oh Hudl, Hudl, Hudl, give the strudel, give it already!"

Here's another translation.

Hudl mitn Strudel
by Aaron Lebedeff

Oh, Hudl, Hudl, Hudl,
What's with your strudel?
It is tasty, I love it very much.
I need no meat or tsimes,
For everything else bores me.
Oh, Hudl, Hudl, Give the strudel,
Give it!

I have a countryman his name is Dudl,
He has a little wife, her name is Hudl,
Hudl and Dudl are so in love.
And his lovely wife Hudl,
Bakes an outstanding strudel,
It is a delight mama, and should go straight into the mouth.
Every Friday when Dudl has the time,
He comes home and he yells:
Oh, Hudl, Hudl, Hudl,
What's with your strudel?
It is tasty, I love it very much.
I need no meat or tsimes,
For everything else bores me.
Oh, Hudl, Hudl, Give the strudel,
Give it!

My countryman Dudl has a tenant,
Who is very much in love with his Hudl,
Because she cooks his supper very well.
And the boarder, how he is smitten,
And the supper refreshes him,
And he devours Hudl with his eyes.
And when she, Hudl, bring the tea to the table,
He smiles and say to her the following:
Oh, Hudl, Hudl, Hudl, your tea with your Strudel,
It is delicious, I love it very much.
It is so delightful, and it just melts in the belly,
Oh Hudl, Give the strudel,
Give it!

I have the Benjy Fox-Rosen CD. I'll have a look at it, but I don't think it has any lyrics.

Thanks, Joe and Mrs. Lev. That's fun. You're right about the clarinet part.
