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

chava:
she might bring someone wonderful—-

hodel:
someone interesting—-

chava:
and well off—-

hodel:
and important—

matchmaker, matchmaker,
make me a match,
find me a find,
catch me a catch
matchmaker, matchmaker
look through your book,
and make me a perfect match

chava:
matchmaker, 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.

chava and hodel:
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 match,
of my own.

(spoken)

tzeitel:
since when are you in a match, chava? i thought you had
your eye on your books.

(hodel chuckles)

tzeitel con’t:
and you have your eye on the rabbi’s son.

hodel:
well, why not?
we have only one rabbi and he has only one son.
why shouldn’t i want the best?

tzeitel:
because you’re a girl from a poor family.
so whatever yenta brings, you’ll take, right?
of course right!

(throws scarf over her head, imitating yenta)
(singing)

hodel, oh hodel,
have i made a match for you!
he’s handsome, he’s young!
alright, he’s 62.
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.
won’t 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’ll 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.

chava and hodel:
dear yenta,
see that he’s gentle
remember,
you were also a bride.
it’s not that
i’m sentimental

chava and hodel and tzeitel:
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.
