To life, to life, L'chaiim
L'chaiim, L'chaiim,
to life
Here's to the father
I've tried to be
Here's to my
bride to be
Drink, L'chaiim, to life
to life, L'chaiim
L'chaiim, L'chaiim, to life
Life has a way
of confusing us
Blessing and bruising us
Drink, L'chaiim, to life
God would like us
to be joyful
Even when our hearts
lie panting on the floor
How much more
can we be joyful
When there's really
something
to be joyful for?
To life, to life, L'chaiim
To Tzeittel, my daughter
My wife,
It gives you
something to think about
Something to drink about
Drink, L'chaiim.... to life!
To Lazar Wolfe
To Tevye
To Tzeitel, your daughter
My wife!
May all your futures
be pleasant ones
Not like the present ones
Drink L'chaiim, to life
To life, L'chaiim
L'chaiim, L'chaiim, to life
It takes a wedding
to make us say
Let's live another day
Drink L'chaiim, to life!
We'll raise a glass
and sip a drop of Schapps
In honor of the great
good luck that favored you
We know that when good
Fortune favors two such men
it stands to reason
We deserve it, too!
To us and our
good fortune
Be happy, be healthy
long life!
And if our good fortune
never comes
here's to whatever comes
Drink, L'chaiim... to life!
Dai dai dai dai dai dai
Dai dai dai dai dai dai
Dai dai dai dai dai dai dai....
Dai dai dai dai dai dai
Dai dai dai dai dai dai
Dai dai dai dai dai dai dai...
