julia migenes, tanya everett & joanna merlin - matchmaker كلمات الأغنية

[hodel, spoken]
i wonder if yente the matchmaker found a husband for you.

[tzeitel, spoken]
oh yente, yente, yente!

[hodel, spoken]
well, somebody has to arrange the matches. young people can’t decide these things themselves.

[chava, spoken]
she might bring someone wonderful—

[hodel, spoken]
someone interesting—

[chava, spoken]
and well off—

[hodel, spoken]
and important—

(sung)
matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match
find me a find, catch me a catch
matchmaker, matchmaker, look through your book
and makе me a perfect match
[chava]
matchmakеr, matchmaker, i’ll bring the veil
you bring the groom, slender and pale
bring me a ring for i’m longing to be
the envy of all i see

[hodel]
for papa, make him a scholar

[chava]
for mama, make him rich as a king

[hodel & chava]
for me, well, i wouldn’t holler
if he were as handsome as anything

matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match
find me a find, catch me a catch
night after night in the dark i’m alone
so find me a match of my own

[tzeitel, spoken]
since when are you interested in a match, chava? i thought you just had your eye on your books. (hodel laughs.) and you have your eye on the rabbi’s son.

[hodel, spoken]
well, why not? we have only one rabbi, he has only one son. why shouldn’t i want the best?
[tzeitel, spoken]
because you’re a girl from a poor family. so whatever yente brings, you’ll take, right? of course right!

(sung, imitating yente)
hodel, oh hodel
have i made a match for you
he’s handsome, he’s young
alright, he’s sixty_two
but he’s a nice man, a good catch
true? true

i promise you’ll be happy
and even if you’re not
there’s more to life than that—
don’t ask me what

chava, i found him
will you be a lucky bride
he’s handsome, he’s tall
that is from side to side
but he’s a nice man, a good catch
right? right

you heard he has a temper
he’ll beat you every night
but only when he’s sober
so you’re alright
did you think you’d get a prince?
well, i do the best i can
with no dowry, no money, no family background
be glad you got a man

[chava]
matchmaker, matchmaker, you know that i’m
still very young
please, take your time

[hodel]
up to this minute i misunderstood
that i could get stuck for good

[hodel & chava]
dear yente, see that he’s gentle
remember, you were also a bride
it’s not that i’m sentimental

[tzeitel, hodl & chava]
it’s just that i’m terrified

matchmaker, matchmaker, plan me no plans
i’m in no rush, maybe i’ve learned
playing with matches a girl can get burned

so bring me no ring
groom me no groom
find me no find
catch me no catch
unless he’s a matchless match
