(Tevye)
 Is this the little girl I carried?
 Is this the little boy at play?

 (Golde)
 I don't remember growing older
 When did they?

 (Tevye)
 When did she get to be a beauty?
 When did he grow to be so tall?

 (Golde)
 Wasn't it yesterday
 When they were small?

 (Men)
 Sunrise, sunset
 Sunrise, sunset
 Swiftly flow the days
 Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
 Blossoming even as we gaze

 (Women)
 Sunrise, sunset
 Sunrise, sunset
 Swiftly fly the years
 One season following another
 Laden with happiness and tears
 (Tevye)
 What words of wisdom can I give them?
 How can I help to ease their way?

 (Tevye)
 Now they must learn from one another
 Day by day

 (Perchik)
 They look so natural together

 (Hodel)
 Just like two newlyweds should be

 (Perchik & Hodel)
 Is there a canopy in store for me?

 (All)
 Sunrise, sunset
 Sunrise, sunset
 Swiftly flow the days
 Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
 Blossoming even as we gaze

 Sunrise, sunset
 Sunrise, sunset
 Swiftly fly the years
 One season following another
 Laden with happiness and tears
