I don't about links, but I know the song - Chanukah oy Chanukah - in Yiddish.
If you know the tune, I can write the words and post for you.
Have a freilechen, lechtige Chanukah

Then can you please post corrected, maybe in Hebrew alphabet too? I would love to have it. My grandfather used to sing it and my mother doesn't remember all the words.

חנוכה אוי חנוכה א יום טוב א שיינע
א ליסטיגע א פרייליכע נישט דא נאך אזיינע
אלע נעכט מיט דריידלעך שפילן מיר
הייסע פרישע לאטקעס עסן מיר
קומטס קינדער

די חנוכה ליכטעלעך אנצינדן

און דאנקט פאר די ניסים
און לאמיר אלע טאנצן צוזאמען
זינגט על הניסים
און דאנקט פאר די ניסים

Now in “Songs of our People” published 1961, it says “Kum gicher

You do realize that folk songs morph over time? People add verses, change words, and eventually you have multiple versions. You’d be amazed how different zemiros can be in different benchers. I challenge you to say which is “right” iow as written by the original payyetan.
My accent, btw, is genuine Peilish/Litvish, not the phony “Litvish” spoken by American Yeshiva Bocherim, an accent that never existed in Europe. Hardly anyone uses this accent anymore, seeing as 98% of its speakers were murdered, and the few who survived were vastly outnumbered by those using other accents. YOU may say Azoyner, but I will continue to say Azeiner, rhymes with “complainer.” As far as I’m concerned, YOUR accent is incorrect. We were once a majority, but losing 98% of your cohort changes things. Unfortunately I can’t help being influenced by American Yiddish because I’m surrounded by it on all sides, especially now that my parents’ generation is no longer alive to keep me on the linguistic straight and narrow. So from time to time I find myself to my horror saying “Azoy” instead of “Azey” (rhymes with Hey). But if the accent is going to be wiped off the face of the earth, which it is just about, it’s not going to be my doing. Fighting to keep the accent alive may help vee a teit in bankes but stick to it I will.

PS I might point out that even our davening and our Megillah readings have multiple nuschaot. Folk songs lo kol sheken. None of them is “wrong.”

There are probably several versions of the song with slight word differences
I remember singing this song in kindergarten
very similar to "Navy's" version
some differences -
הייסע זודיגע לאטקעס עסן מיר אן א שיעור
- next verse געשווינדער is first
- second line - קומט'ס קינדער
(this way it matches the rhythm of the tune)
- "מ'זאגט "על הניסים
-און דאנקן פאר די ניסים
There are 2 additional verses that we sang which wasn't mentioned by posters. Perhaps this part is less known -
יהודה האט פארטריבן
דער רשע, דער רוצח
און האט אין בית המקדש
" געזינגן "למנצח
דער שטאט ירושלים
האט ווידער אויף געלעבט
און צו א נייער לעבן
האט יעדער איד געשטרעבט

English version is:
chanuka oh chanuka, come light the menora,
let's have a party,
we'll all dance the hora,
gather round the table,
I'll give you a treat,
a dreidel to play with and latkes to eat,
and while we are playing,
the candles are burning low,
one for each night, they share their sweet light to remind us of days long ago,
one for each night, they share their sweet light to remind us of days long ago.
