"In a corner of the Temple, a widow rocks her only son in a cradle..." This Yiddish song's haunting melody was sung by some who perished in Auschwitz... and others who survived to speak of their memory. |

Lyrics
English Translation:
In a corner of the Temple,
Sits a widowed daughter of Zion.
She rocks her only son in a cradle,
And sings him a lullaby
To send him to sleep.
Under the cradle stands a white goat,
Which she came to sell.
This will be your trade,
Raisins and Almonds,
Sleep, already, little Jewish boy.
Sleep, little Jewish boy, sleep.
