oyskhu vs. oydkhu

In the song Mu Asapru, there is a word that I have found slightly
different in various versions. The beginning of each verse begins:
Mu Asapru, mu adabru (or alternately Mu adabru, mu asapru),
Oyskhu, oyskhu, (or oydkhu, oydkhu)
I'm assuming that these words are Aramaic. Can anyone tell me the
meaning/origin of the oyskhu/oydkhu and tell me which is
correct/preferable? Can anyone enlighten me as to whether it makes any
difference which comes first; mu asapru or mu adabru?
A dank,
Lorele
