foterlender mayne
ver ken aykh oystseyln un dakhtn?
saydn tsiterike fis, vos filn
az shtrekes lign eybike un vartn

vartn, vi a leyb af loyer
vartn, zikhere geduldik
az fis zoln onk-men in troyer
fis, vos zenen eybik shuldik

sreyfes vartn
az mir zoln tsu zey k-men
in sreyfe hot zikh got
tsu undz gemoldn
yamen vartn, az mir zoln in zey zinken
mir hobn eynmol shoyn
dem yam geshpoltn

foterlender mayne
kalte, heysе, zunike un tribe
ikh kon aykh tsuzogn tsu akern
tsu zеyen, tsu bazingen
nor kh’kon nit tsuzogn keyn libe

ikh bin farlibt gor in a karshn-beyml
vos hot geblit, mir dukht zikh
in a tog a heln
ikh bin gegangen in a vaysn kleydl
mit a krentsl glezerne kareln

foterlender mayne
heyse, kalte, zunike un tribe
lomir redn vegn got
un broyt, un vaser
nor lomir mer nit redn vegn libe

my alleged homelands
who could ever number you or name you?
but the feet, trembling at the borders
that lie in wait for any who would claim you
they lie in wait like lions
waiting, patient, and infernal
for feet to come in sorrow and in silence
culpable & weary & eternal

fires wait for us to walk into their pyres
for once we saw a flame with god inside it

oceans wait for us to sink beneath their waters
for once we crossed the waters he divided

my alleged homelands
cold or hot, with sun or cloud above you
i can promise you my plow, my sowing, and my singing
but never can i promise to love you

for i am in love with a cherry blossom
that bloomed one distant morning clear & bright
i wore a string of beads of many colors
and a summer dress of purest white

my alleged homelands
hot or cold, with sun or cloud above you
let us speak of god, or bread, or water
but never let us say that i should love you
