:15:01
From such children
come other children.

:15:03
Motel is nothing.
:15:06
Yente, you said
you had news for me.

:15:09
Children.
:15:11
They are your blessing
in your old age.

:15:13
But my Aaron, may he rest in peace,
couldn't give me children.

:15:18
To tell the truth,
Golde, he hardly tried.

:15:21
But what's the use complaining?
:15:23
Other women enjoy complaining.
Not Yente.

:15:27
Not every woman
in the world is a Yente.

:15:31
Well, I...
I have to go home now...

:15:34
to prepare my poor Sabbath meal.
:15:36
So good-bye, Golde...
:15:38
and it was a pleasure
talking our hearts out.

:15:42
You said you had news.
:15:44
Oi, I'm losing my head.
:15:47
Someday it'll fall off altogether...
:15:49
and a horse will kick it in the mud...
:15:51
and good-bye, Yente.
:15:53
Of course, the news.
:15:56
It's about Lazar Wolf, the butcher.
:15:59
A good, fine man...
:16:01
and I don't have to say
he's well off, no?

:16:04
Yes. But he's lonely, the poor man.
:16:08
He's been a widower all these years.
:16:10
Of course you understand.
So, to make it short.

:16:14
Out of the whole town,
he's cast his eye...

:16:17
on Tzeitel.
:16:20
- My Tzeitel?
- No, the czar's Tzeitel.

:16:23
Of course your Tzeitel.
:16:26
Such a match for my Tzeitel.
:16:31
But Tevye wants a learned man.
He doesn't like Lazar.

:16:35
Good, so Lazar won't marry him.
:16:37
He wants the daughter, not the father.
:16:40
Listen to me, Golde.
:16:43
You send Tevye to him.
Don't tell him what it's about.

:16:46
Let Lazar discuss it himself.
:16:48
He'll win him over.
He's a good man and a wealthy man.

:16:53
Let me know how it went.
:16:55
You don't have to thank me...
:16:58
because aside from my fee,
which Lazar will pay anyway...
