Never heard the word. Did you mean verclempt? Mike Meyers used the yiddish slang on a SNL sketch. Meant he was about to cry and was overcome with emotion,

I believe you might've misheard "verklempt."

From UrbanDictionary.com:

verklempt: Fake Yiddish for "overcome with emotion" -- from the "Linda Richman" skits on "Saturday Night Live"
