Mordechai Gebirtig is the acknowledged poet-composer of Polish Jewry. Among the music treasures of every nation can be found melodies which during the lifetime of their composer were considered to be folk songs. While exemplifying the soul of the composer, they may also mirror the feelings and travails of an entire people. This can truly be said of Gebirtig. Songs such as: Reyzele, Hulyet Kinderlekh, Kinder Yorn, Moyshele Mayn Fraynd, S'brent etc., capture the spirit and pathos of Jewish life in pre-war Poland.

Fifty four selections with melody line, chords and complete verse transliteration and capsule translations.
