ehri:notes "Recorded by Ben Stonehill, Hotel Marseilles, New York, summer 1948. From the Library of Congress, Ben Stonehill Collection containing field recordings of songs of European Jewish immigrants, described by Ben Stonehill as\"containing almost a thousand songs collected from Jewish refugees in N.Y. City in 1948 that they brought with them from concentration camp, ghetto and hearth\" Originally recorded on wire in New York City by Ben Stonehill, 1948. Lyrics:\"What are you singing? What is this song called? “Khotsh” (Though). Very good. Though I have no home, no land to live in, The whole world hunts me, yet I don’t give in. I live. Oh, I live. A curse on my enemies— What sense, what meaning is there to my life, to my endless wanderings? Yet still I live. Oh, I live. Though I have no feet, no hands, no part of me intact, Yet I want to wildly dance. I dance. Oh, I dance. A curse on my enemies— What sense, what meaning is there to my life, to my endless wanderings? Yet still I dance. Oh, I dance. A curse on my enemies— What sense, what meaning is there to my life, to my endless wanderings? Yet still I dance. Though I have no voice left, no way to make a sound, Yet I want to wildly sing. So I sing. Oh, I sing. A curse on my enemies— What sense, what meaning is there to my life, to my endless wanderings? Yet still I sing. Oh, I sing. And so I live!"@en ;
