I apologize in advance for any misspellings, but this is an old saying from my Mom and Grandmother, and over the years, it has lost its translation, and they are unsure exactly how to spell the words. They aren't even sure what language it is. It seems a bit of Czech and Dutch and German, all rolled into one. So here goes:
"Asa bata Freude zeleke ata Moya svesta Sista und da Breude."
Like I said, I am sorry if I butchered this. My Mom says that, LOOSELY translated, it means something like:
"As is it for your mother and father so it shall be for your sister and brother".
Can anyone help?

Sorry- let me reiterate:
WHAT language is it? and
IS IT spelled right?
How can I know the spelling when I don't know the language? Read the question, PLEASE.

All I can say is that there are two German words in there.
'Freude 'which means joy and 'und' which is and. I don't see the word joy in your mom's translation.
