[HANASHIR:12688] Re: song for 80 year old

[JAH29 <JAH29...>]

 The song referred to, "Achtsik Er Un Zibetsik Zi" ("Eighty He and Seventy 
She"),  is really for a 50th anniversary of a couple although it mentions 
that the man is 80 years old..  The first verse says ""Es iz haynt akurat 
gevorn fuftsik yor", fuftsik yor being 50 years.  But it's a lovely song and 
I've used it at just such anniversaries.  It can be found, among other 
places, in Jerry Silverman's "The Yiddish Songbook".
