Song Lyrics[]
Anthony: (spoken) in Hebrew, "Lechoo" means to walk, and "Yeladim" means children. So, when you hear Greg sing "Lechoo Yeladim", it means "Walk, children." Now when you hear Greg sing "Imdoo", that means you have to stop and stand still just like a statue.
Greg: Lechoo Lechoo Yeladim, Lechoo Yeladim
Anthony: (spoken) Walking.
Greg: Lechoo Lechoo Yeladim, Lechoo Yeladim
Imdoo.
Anthony: (spoken) Now stop.
Greg: Imdoo, imdoo Yeladim
Imdoo, imdoo, imdoo Yeladim.
Anthony: (spoken) Now, "Routsu" means to run. So, when you hear Greg sing "Routsu Yeladim", Run, children.
Greg: Routsu Routsu Yeladim, Routsu Yeladim
Routsu Routsu Yeladim, Routsu Yeladim
Imdoo,
Anthony: (spoken) Stop.
Greg: Imdoo, imdoo Yeladim
Imdoo,
Anthony: (spoken) Stop.
Greg: Imdoo,
Anthony: (spoken) Stop.
Greg: Imdoo Yeladim
Anthony: (spoken) Why don't we walk around one more time to "Lechoo Yeladim"?
Greg: Lechoo Lechoo Yeladim, Lechoo Yeladim
Anthony: (spoken) That's it.
Greg: Lechoo Lechoo Yeladim, Lechoo Yeladim
Imdoo,
Anthony: (spoken) Now stop.
Greg: Imdoo, imdoo Yeladim
Imdoo, imdoo, imdoo Yeladim.
