Tevye: (Sung) 
I can't believe my own ears.
My blessing? For what? For going over my head? Impossible! At least with Tzeitel and Motel, they asked me, they begged me! But now if I like it or not, you'll marry him. So what do you want from me?
Go on! Be wed! And tear out my beard,and uncover my head. Tradition! They're not even asking permission, From the Papa! What's happening to the Tradition? One little time i pulled out a thread.
And where has it lead? Where has it lead?
 
(Spoken) Where has it lead? To this? The man tells me, he's getting married. Oh, he doesn't ask, he tells me? But first, he abandons her!

Hodel: He's not abandoning me, Papa.
Perchik: As soon as I can, I will send for her and marry her. I love her.

Tevye: He loves her? Love, it's the new style.
On the other hand, our old ways were new once new weren't they?
On the other hand they decided without parents!
Without a matchmaker! On the other hand, did Adam and Eve have a matchmaker? Yes they did. It seems these two have the same matchmaker.

(Sung):Their going over my head.unheard of, absurd!
For this they want to be blessed! Unthinkable!
I'll lock her up in her room!
I couldn't. I should! But look at my daughters eyes. She loves him.
Spoken: Tradition? Very well children, you have my blessing and my permission.

Hodel: Oh, thank you, Papa, You don't know how happy that makes me.
Tevye: What else could I do?
Perchik: Thank you Papa.
Tevye: Thank you, Papa. What will I tell your mother? Another dream?
Perchik: Perhaps if you tell her something ... that I am going to visit a rich uncle, something like that.
Tevye: Please, Perchik, I can handle my own wife.  Golde, Golde. Hello Golde. I've just been talking to Hodel and Perchik.
Golde: Well.
Tevye: They seem to be very fond of each other.
Golde: Well.
Tevye: I have decided to give them my permission to become engaged... I have to go inside and ...
Golde: What just like this? Without even asking me?
Tevye: Who asks you? I'm the father.
Golde: Who is he? A pauper. He has nothing, absolutely nothing!
Tevye: I wouldn't say that. I hear that he has a rich uncle, a very rich uncle. He's good man Golde. I like him. He's a little crazy. And what's more important, Hodel likes him. Hodel loves him. So what can we do? It's a new world, a new world. Love. Golde...
