Afn veg shteyt a boym



The text of "Afn Veg shteyt a boym" is not about a bird telling her daughter
to go out and live, but about a child who wished she was a bird whose mother
feared for her catching cold and dying. 
Incidentally, a unique rendering of this fine song is available on a
beautiful animation by filmmaker Sally Heckel called "The Bent Tree"
available from Ergo media.
