טאַקע, זאָגן איר קענען זען, דורך די פרימאָרגן פאַרטאָג
וואָס אַזוי שטאלץ מיר כיילד אין די טוויליגהט ס לעצט גלימינג
וועמענס ברייט סטריפּס און העל שטערן, טהראָ 'די פּעראַלאַס קאַמף
וועגן די ראַמפּאַלז מיר וואָטשט, זענען אַזוי גאלאַנטלי סטרימינג
און די ראַקערז 'רויט גלער, די באָמבס בערסטינג אין לופט
געגעבן דערווייַז טהראָ 'די נאַכט אַז אונדזער פאָן איז נאָך דאָרט
אָ, זאָגן, טוט אַז שטערן ספּאַנגלעד פאָן נאָך כוואַליע
אָו דער ערד פון די פֿרייַ און די היים פון די העלדיש

This is just to the tune of the national anthem.
It isn't the actual words translated in yiddish.

I saw the video, didn't understand the joke/message/point. Anyone care to explain?

They just sent it around yesterday, because of July 4th. The play's setting, it seems, was during the American Revolution. Nothing more to it.

It's not the national anthem it's only the tune.

This is taken from one of the popular Yiddish Plays they perform on chol hamoed.

The gist of the song is praising the American freedom and asking Hashem to bring Mashiach quickly.

Basically that we're living in America our friend yet still amongst g0yim and far from our eternal homeland, therefore we beseech Hashem to free us from the yoke of golus and send Mashiach.
