- (Mourners muttering)
(Woman) May God forgive her.
(Reading continues)
(Mourners pray)
My house is hers as long as she wants.
She'll help in the store,
look after the children, cook...
- Yentl, eat.
- (Woman muttering)
It's enough.
Then Life goes on.
Ah!
Sorry.
Razel, Sarah, I think maybe
we come back later.
(Woman chatting quietly)
(Woman) Get your things, Yentl.
I'll come back for you Later.
I'll keep you so busy,
you won't have time to think.
Forgive me, Papa.
Wait!
- Wait. Stop!
- Whoa!
- (Neighing)
- What do you want, boy?
Could you give me a ride to the next town?
- You got money?
- Er, a Little.
- Get in back.
- Thank you.
- Yah!
- Where do you think you're going?

(Animal shrieks)
God
Our heavenly father
O God
And my father, who's also in heaven
May the Light
Of this flickering candle
Illuminate the night
the way your spirit
Illuminates my soul
Papa...
Can you hear me?
Papa, can you see me?
Papa, can you find me in the night?
Papa, are you near me?
Papa, can you hear me?
Papa, can you help me
not be frightened?
Looking at the skies
I seem to see a million eyes
Which ones are yours?
Where are you now that yesterday
has waved goodbye
And closed its doors?
The night is so much darker
The wind is so much colder
The world I see is so much bigger
Now that I'm alone
Try to understand me
Papa, don't you know I had no choice?
Can you hear me praying
Anything I'm saying
Even though the night
is filled with voices?
I remember everything you taught me
Every book I've ever read
Can all the words in all the books
Help me to face what lies ahead?
The trees are so much taller
And I feel so much smaller
The moon is twice as lonely
And the stars are half as bright
Papa, how I Love you
Papa, how I need you
Papa, how I miss you
Kissing me good night
If I am not for myself, who will be for me?
(Lowers pitch) Who will be for me?
(Coughs)
Who will be for me?
If I am for myself alone, who am I?
(Lower) Who am I?
And if not now...
- (Horse neighing in distance)
- ... when?
(Yentl) Wait!
(Child shouting)
- (Lively chatter)
- (Man) Innkeeper, more soup!
(Chatter continues, men singing)
(Man) Did you hear that?
(2nd man) Yes. I hear, I hear.
(Singing continues)
(Man) Who's throwing that?
Don't throw that. I told you not to.
- Watch out!
- (Man) Lithuania, Poland, same thing.
A school is a school. It's only the rabbis
that are different. The girls...
- Why would the Talmud repeat itself?
- It's an improper translation.
