Re: looking for lyrics to " vos darf men hoben gelt in der velt"



For other variations of "oyb nisht keyn emine" see Ginsburg-Marek no. 
26, and in Katcherginski's collection of ghetto songs, there is a 
version that was sung in the Warsaw ghetto. I believe the informant 
was the Montreal Yiddish poet Yehude Elberg who died last year. There 
is a recording on an LP of this Warsaw version by a cantor whose name 
is Asher Hazinovitch (my spelling is surely wrong, I apologize). 
Notice that it is sung much slower than the Hasidic version which was 
released on the recording "Zmires yisrol".. - itzik gottesman
