איפה הן הבחורות ההן [Eifo Hen HaBachurot HaHen] [English translation]

When the penny had a hole - and we spent

our time on swaps and roads

there were no "chicks"1in our land

but there were, yes my friend, women!!!

Ach! where, where are they,

those young ladies

with the ponytail and the pinafore dress

with the hoe

and the dagger2

why don't we see them any more?

They would then ride, thus above

on horses from the "the sentry"3organization

but today - they ride on the husband,

and donkey4- this is already another matter...

Ach! where, where are they...

They hid in their bra a "Parabellum"5

and a few grenades for the firefight.

but today - there is cleavage as if,

that with difficulty puts in what there is

Ach! where, where are they...

They read Pushkin on the threshing floor

and tore the heart, at the same time!

But today - it is clearly different, because

they immediately get down to business6

Ach! where, where are they...
