Re: translations to Hebrew of American folk songs

[Alex J. Lubet <lubet001...>]

Curious, what for?  The possibilities are potentially frightening.  For

My Yiddish isn't very good at allbut I once did a version of Aloha Oe as a
tribute to my Hawaii-born wife.  (It's a new lyric, not a translation).
