Chiribim, chiribom
Chiribim, chiribom

Yesterday within our village I heard a joyful song
Sparrows on the branches, pigeons on the roofs sing along
Sparrows on the branches, pigeons on the roofs sing along
Mama makes a soup with noodles and dumplings with leek
Holiday world is so bright, the dreidel spins all week
Holiday world is so bright, the dreidel spins all week
There once was a wise old rebbe praying every single day
He told us he and heaven made a pact along the way
He told us he and heaven made a pact along the way
There is a town called Chelm where day and night the fools all play
All the fools they sing and dance and laugh at their foolish ways
All the fools they sing and dance and laugh at their foolish ways
Chiribim, chiribom
Chiribim, chiribom
Chiribim, chiribom
Sing the chorus with everyone, then trade verses around the room.
