Re: Grine Kuzine in english?

My Greenhorn Cousin

Have you heard the tale of my "kuzine,"
New as new, just off the boat, a "grine,"
Cheeks as bright as oranges, a romancer--
Feet so light and lovely, like a dancer.

But if you see her now, you wouldn't know her--
Working in the sweatshops really showed her
Just how hard it is to be a "grine"--
You should see my poor, worn-out kuzine!

I won't admit to writing this, but help yourself....
