al chof kurkar yesh tzerif mukar
On a kurkar shore there is a familiar shack
hatzerif shel tamari hanagar
The shack of Tamari the Carpenter
hu ketzat muzar umfuzar
He is a little strange and scattered
oto tamari hanagar
That Tamari the Carpenter
aval omrim shesipurim
But they say that stories
yesh lo yoter memasmerim
He has more of than nails
al chof kurkar
On a kurkar shore
bitzrif mukar
In a familiar shack
sham gar tamari hanagar
There lives Tamari the Carpenter
vegar ito bilam echad
And living with him is Balaam
chamor behechlet dey meyuchad
A donkey who is quite exceptional
veizmarleda chatula
And Esmeralda the cat
hi atzila vaatzela
She is noble and lazy
vetzav iti ufiutey
And a slow and poetic tortoise
shemo hu sod mamash perati
Whose name is a very private secret
al chof kurkar
On a kurkar shore
bitzrif mukar
In a familiar shack
sham gar tamari hanagar
There lives Tamari the Carpenter
