Re: "Unser Rebbinue" and Oy! Wey! Rebbenyu!

  ----- Message d'origine -----
  "only one line repeated over and over as the lyrics: "Unser rebbinue, oy 
gevalt."  

  With so few and repetitive words, it should be a nigun with strong hassidic 
inspiration.
  I don't know the music of the tune your writing about, but it sounds like 
this one:

  Oy! Wey! Rebbenyu! Rebbenyu! Rebbenyu! 
  Oy! Wey! Rebbenyu! 
  Tswish'n Kosef un Kitef,
  Iz a weldale farannen.
  Futer Baal Shem, Futer Baal Shem,
  Dort iz Tatenyu gegangen.

  I learned it a few months ago in Berlin from the beautiful norwegian yiddish 
singer Bente Kahan.
  I also have the music, if it's of interest for somebody...
