(Man)
 "After a lifetime... A piece of paper, an edict for the authorities, and we must all leave our homes."
 
 (Mendel)
 "Rabbi, we've been waiting for the Messiah all our lives... 
 Wouldn't this be a good time for him to come?"
 
 (Rabbi)
 "We'll have to wait for him someplace else. Meanwhile, let's start packing."
 
 (Yente)
 "Well, Anatevka hasn't been exactly the Garden of Eden."
 
 (Avram)
 "That's true."
 
 (Golde)
 "After all, what have we got here?"
 
 A little bit of this
 A little bit of that
 
 (Yente)
 A pot
 
 (Lazar)
 A pan
 
 (Mendel)
 A broom
 
 (Avram)
 A hat
 
 (Tevye)
 "Someone should have set a match to this place years ago."
 
 (Mendel)
 A bench
 
 (Avram)
 A tree
 
 (Golde)
 So what's a stove?
 
 (Lazar)
 Or a house
 
 (Mendel)
 "People who pass through Anatevka don't even know they've been here."
 
 (Golde)
 A stick of wood
 
 (Yente)
 A piece of cloth
 
 (All)
 What do we leave
 Nothing much
 Only Anatevka
 
 Anatevka, Anatevka
 Underfed, overworked Anatevka
 Where else could Sabbath be so sweet
 
 Anatevka, Anatevka
 Intimate, obstinate Anatevka
 Where I know everyone I meet
 
 Soon I'll be a stranger in a strange new place
 Searching for an old familiar face
 From Anatevka
 
 I belong in Anatevka
 Tumbledown, workaday Anatevka
 Dear little village, little town of mine
