Tzeitel, you are the oldest, |
| [00:02.210] |
Yenta has to make a match for you |
| [00:04.380] |
before she can make one for me. |
| [00:06.670] |
Oh Yenta Yenta! |
| [00:07.700] |
Well, somebody has to arrange the matches, |
| [00:10.830] |
Young people can't decide these things themselves. |
| [00:13.910] |
She might bring someone wonderful---- |
| [00:15.820] |
Someone interesting---- |
| [00:16.860] |
And well off---- |
| [00:17.870] |
And important--- |
| [00:20.380] |
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, |
| [00:22.230] |
Make me a match, |
| [00:24.190] |
Find me a find, |
| [00:26.750] |
catch me a catch |
| [00:29.440] |
Matchmaker, Matchmaker |
| [00:31.790] |
Look through your book, |
| [00:34.690] |
And make me a perfect match |
| [00:40.700] |
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, |
| [00:42.850] |
I'll bring the veil, |
| [00:44.790] |
You bring the groom, |
| [00:47.290] |
Slender and pale. |
| [00:50.200] |
Bring me a ring for I'm longing to be-- |
| [00:53.720] |
The envy of all I see. |
| [00:56.890] |
For Papa, |
| [00:58.950] |
Make him a scholar. |
| [01:00.190] |
For mama, |
| [01:01.650] |
Make him rich as a king. |
| [01:03.550] |
For me, well, |
| [01:04.350] |
I wouldn't holler |
| [01:06.610] |
If he were as handsome as anything. |
| [01:11.160] |
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, |
| [01:12.470] |
Make me a match, |
| [01:14.060] |
Find me a find, |
| [01:15.760] |
Catch me a catch, |
| [01:17.460] |
Night after night in the dark I'm alone |
| [01:20.420] |
So find me match, |
| [01:22.030] |
Of my own. |
| [01:28.390] |
Since when are you in a match, Chava? |
| [01:30.910] |
I thought you had your eye on your books. |
| [01:33.850] |
And you have your eye on the Rabbi's son. |
| [01:37.220] |
Well, why not? |
| [01:38.610] |
We have only one Rabbi |
| [01:40.520] |
and he has only one son. |
| [01:42.720] |
Why shouldn't I want the best? |
| [01:44.910] |
Because you're a girl from a poor family. |
| [01:47.270] |
So whatever Yenta brings, |
| [01:48.280] |
you'll take, right? |
| [01:50.570] |
Of course right! |
| [01:53.330] |
Hodel, oh Hodel, |
| [01:54.990] |
Have I made a match for you! |
| [01:56.780] |
He's handsome, he's young! |
| [01:58.390] |
Alright, he's 62. |
| [02:00.090] |
But he's a nice man,a good catch, |
| [02:02.040] |
true? True. |
| [02:03.650] |
I promise you'll be happy, |
| [02:05.370] |
And even if you're not, |
| [02:07.070] |
There's more to life than that--- |
| [02:09.190] |
Don't ask me what. |
| [02:14.120] |
Chava, I found him. |
| [02:15.880] |
Won't you be a lucky bride! |
| [02:17.530] |
He's handsome, he's tall, |
| [02:19.300] |
That is from side to side. |
| [02:20.760] |
But he's a nice man, a good catch, |
| [02:22.830] |
right?Right. |
| [02:24.490] |
You heard he has a temper. |
| [02:26.150] |
He'll beat you every night, |
| [02:27.870] |
But only when he's sober, |
| [02:29.920] |
So you'll alright. |
| [02:32.940] |
Did you think you'd get a prince? |
| [02:35.340] |
Well I do the best I can. |
| [02:38.810] |
With no dowry, no money, |
| [02:42.220] |
no family background |
| [02:45.380] |
Be glad you got a man! |
| [02:55.140] |
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, |
| [02:56.790] |
You know that I'm |
| [02:58.190] |
Still very young. |
| [03:00.100] |
Please, take your time. |
| [03:02.800] |
Up to this minute, |
| [03:04.400] |
I misunderstood |
| [03:06.860] |
That I could get stuck for good. |
| [03:10.630] |
Dear Yenta, |
| [03:12.290] |
See that he's gentle |
| [03:13.700] |
Remember, |
| [03:14.950] |
You were also a bride. |
| [03:16.710] |
It's not that |
| [03:18.240] |
I'm sentimental |
| [03:20.490] |
It's just that I'm terrified! |
| [03:24.900] |
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, |
| [03:26.240] |
Plan me no plans |
| [03:27.890] |
I'm in no rush |
| [03:29.590] |
Maybe I've learned |
| [03:31.260] |
Playing with matches |
| [03:33.260] |
A girl can get burned |
| [03:36.010] |
So,Bring me no ring |
| [03:38.420] |
Groom me no groom |
| [03:39.920] |
Find me no find |
| [03:41.390] |
Catch me no catch |
| [03:43.540] |
Unless he's a matchless match. |
