History
According to an eye-witness account, the words to the original melody were adapted during police actions in the Holocaust as follows: “Sha, shtil, makh nit keyn gerider,/ S’iz in lager a kontrol vider./ Sha, shtil, makh nit keyn gevald,/ Di kontrol kumt aher bald./ Un az di kontrol kumt iz dokh vey un vind, / Men darf in lager nit zen keyn kind.” (Shh, hush, don't make any noise, the guard is coming again; shh, hush, don't make a clamor, the guard is coming soon. And when the guard comes, it's woe to us — no child in the camp should be seen.)
The Israeli Yiddish metal band Gevolt has recorded Sha, shtil on its album AlefBase.
