(Tevye) He asked you to leave your father and mother
And join him in that frozen waste land and marry him 
there.

(Hodel) No Papa, he did not asked me to go, I want to 
go
(Tevye) Hodel!
(Hodel) Papa!

How can I hope to make you understand
Why I do what I do,
Why I must travel to a distant land,
Far from the home I love.
Once I was happily content to be
As I was, where I was,
Close to the people who are close to me,
Here in the home I love.
Who could see that a man could come
Helpless now I stand with him,
Watching older dreams grow dim.
Oh, what a melancholy choice this is,
Wanting home, wanting him,
Closing my heart to ev'ry hope but his,
Leaving the home I love,
There where my heart has settled long ago
I must go, I must go
Who could imagine I'd be wand'ring so
Far from the home I love
Yet there with my love, I'm home.

Papa, God alone knows when we shall see each other 
again

(Tevye) Then we will leave it in his hands
