用一台班卓琴美妙演奏；
在这夏夜它们爬上了树，
唱着：“吾爱，哦，来我怀抱！”
来窗边
来窗边，
我的宝贝，和我一起，
看看繁星，
闪耀在海上。
有两颗小星星，
他们玩躲猫猫
和两条小鱼儿
远在深海里；
两只小青蛙，
叫着：“小潮，小潮，小潮；”
我看见一个亲爱的宝贝
他该睡觉了。
古力?洛克斯
古力?洛克斯，古力?洛克斯，
你会成为我的吗？
你不必洗碟子，
不必喂猪，
但要坐在一个垫子上
牢牢地缝合裂口，
吃一口草莓，
带着糖，和奶油
克劳斯·帕奇，画上门插销
克劳斯·帕奇，画上门插销，
坐在炉子和纺车边上；
拿起一杯茶，把它喝光，
然后把邻居们叫进来。
克劳斯·帕奇，画上门插销
克劳斯·帕奇，画上门插销，
坐在炉子和纺车边上；
拿起一杯茶，把它喝光，
然后把邻居们叫进来
你是否垂耳倾听
你是否垂耳倾听？
他们是否摇摆不定？
你能否将他们打进一个结中？
你能否将他们系进一张弓中？
你能否将他们从肩头掷出
就像一个步兵？
你是否垂耳倾听？
伊丽莎白，埃尔斯佩斯，贝特斯，和贝思
伊丽莎白，埃尔斯佩斯，贝特斯，和贝思，
她们一起去寻找一个鸟巢；
她们找到一个里面有五个蛋的鸟巢，
她们拿了一个，留了四个。
埃尔希·玛丽
埃尔希·玛丽成长得如此漂亮健康，
她长大后不会去喂猪，
除了躺在床上直到八点或九点！
懒惰的埃尔希·玛丽。
咪咪小的蜘蛛
咪咪小的蜘蛛
爬上喷水嘴；
雨下下来
冲走了小蜘蛛；
太阳升起来
晒干了所有雨点；
咪咪小的蜘蛛
再次爬上喷水嘴。
爸爸妈妈和约翰叔叔
爸爸妈妈和约翰叔叔
一个接一个地去集市。
爸爸摔倒了——！
妈妈摔倒了——！
但约翰叔叔继续走，继续，
继续，
继续，
继续，
继续，
继续……
唱一首六便士之歌
唱一首六便士之歌，
袋子里装满黑麦；
二十四只黑画眉，
被放在派里面烤！
当派被剥开，
画眉开始唱歌；
那可不是放在国王桌前，
十分可口的一餐吗？
国王在帐房数钱；
王后在客厅吃面包蜂蜜。
女仆在花园晒衣；
一只黑画眉飞来，
啄走了她的鼻子。
Sing A Song of Sixpence
Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye;
Four-and-twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie!
When the pie was opened
The birds began to sing;
Was not that a dainty dish
To set before the king?
The king was in his counting-house,
Counting out his money;
The queen was in the parlor,
Eating bread and honey.
The maid was in the garden,
Hanging out the clothes;
When down came a blackbird
And snapped off her nose.
1, 2, Freddy's comin' for you
3, 4, better lock your door
5, 6, grap your crucifix
7, 8, gonna stay up late
9, 10, never sleep again!
1，2 弗莱迪会来找你
3，4 锁好你的门
5，6 盖上你的脸
7，8 呼吸将停止
9，10 你永远失眠
Solomon Grundy
Solomon Grundy,
Born on a Monday,
Christened on Tuesday,
Married on Wednesday,
Took ill on Thursday,
Worse on Friday,
Died on Saturday,
Buried on Sunday.
This is the end
Of Solomon Grundy.
所罗门格兰德
在星期一出生
在星期二受洗
在星期三结婚

There was an old man
There was an old man
And he had a calf
And that's half
从前有个老人
他养了一头小牛
现在说到一半
He took him out of the stall
And put his on the wall
And that's all
老人把小牛带出牛舍
再把它系在墙上
这就是全部
Cut Thistles In May
Cut thistles in May,
They’ll grow in a day;
Cut them in June,
That is too soon;
Cut them in July,
Then they will die.
五月割蓟，
他们一天就长；
六月割蓟，
那会太快；
七月割蓟，
他们死亡。

When will that be？Say the bells of Stepney.
I’m sure I don’t know,Says the great bell at Bow.
When I am old,Say the bells at St. Paul’s.
Her comes a candle to light you to bed,Here comes a chopper to chop off your head.
欢乐地摇下又摇上，伦敦的钟儿响当当。

提到瓦片和砖头，就数大钟圣吉尔斯。
提到橘子和柠檬，就数大钟圣克雷门。
提到糕饼和馅饼，就数大钟圣彼德。
两根木棒一颗苹果，那就是大钟白教堂。

要问你什么时候还钱，就让我想到大钟老贝礼。
还钱？得等我有钱，就想到大钟休尔狄区。
等你有钱？那是什么时候？就想到大钟史特普尼。
我也不太清楚，似是大钟包伍的响应。
应该是我老的时候吧，说话的像是大钟圣保罗。
蜡烛点燃时你该上床睡觉去，当心刀斧要你的命。
Dame Trot And Her Cat
Dame Trot and her cat
Led a peaceable life,
When they were not troubled
With other folks’ strife.
When Dame had her dinner,
Pussy would wait,
And was sure to receive
A nice piece from her plate.
特罗特女爵和她的猫，
过着平静的生活，
当她们不被
别的亲戚的冲突打扰。
当特罗特女爵进晚餐，
猫将等待，
确定能够得到，
她盘中美味的一份
Do Your Ears Hang Low
Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie ’em in a knot?
Can you tie ’em in a bow?
Can you throw ’em over your shoulder
Like a continental soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
你是否垂耳倾听？
他们是否摇摆不定？
你能否将他们打进一个结中？
你能否将他们系进一张弓中？
你能否将他们从肩头掷出
就像一个步兵？
你是否垂耳倾听？

Has twenty nails -- upon each hand
Five, and twenty on hands and feet:
All this is true without deceit.

有二十只长指甲——在每只手上
五个一组，一共二十只在手和脚上：
这些都是真实的。
All Around The Mulberry Bush
All around the mulberry bush,
The monkey chased the weasel.
The monkey thought ’t was all in fun.
Pop! goes the weasel.
围绕着桑树丛，
猴子追赶着黄鼠狼。

A penny for a needle.
That’s the way the money goes.
Pop! Goes the weasel.

I met Mister Rusticap;
Pins and needles on his back,
A-going to Thorney Fair.

我遇到了锈帽子先生；
钉和针在他背上，
正向着荆棘集市走去。
As White As Milk
As white as milk,
And not milk;
As green as grass,
And not grass;
As red as blood,
And not blood;
As black as soot,
And not soot.
像牛奶一样白，
而不是牛奶；
像青草一样绿，
而不是青草；
像鲜血一样红，
而不是鲜血；
像煤烟一样黑，
而不是煤烟。
Birds Of A Feather
Birds of a feather flock together,
And so will pigs and swine;
Rats and mice will have their choice,
And so will I have mine.

猪也会这样；
老鼠和耗子有他们自己的选择，
而我也有我的。
Boys And Girls,Come Out To ****
***s and girls, come out to play.
The moon doth shine as bright as day!
Leaves your supper and leave your sleep,
And come with your playfellows into the street.
Come with a whistle,
Come with a call,
Come with a good will, or not at all.
男孩女孩出来玩。
月亮亮得像白天！
抛开晚餐和睡眠，
携朋带友游大街。
伴着一声呼哨，
伴着一声号召，
伴着一个好意愿，或者干脆都没有。
Variant form:
Boys and girls, come out to play.
The moon doth shine as bright as day!
Leaves your supper and leave your sleep,
And come with your playfellows into the street.
Come with a whoop, come with a call,
Come with a good will, or not at all.
Up the ladder and down the wall,
A half-penny loaf will serve us all;
You find the milk, and I’ll find the flour,
And we’ll have a pudding in half an hour.
变体：
男孩女孩出来玩，
月亮亮得像白天！

爬上梯子跳下墙，
半条面包都吃饱；
你找到了牛奶，我找到了面粉，
半个小时做布丁。
A Cat Came Fiddling Out Of A Barn
A cat came fiddling out of a barn,
With a pair of bagpipes under her arm.
She could sing nothing but fiddle dee dee,
The mouse has married the bumblebee.
Pipe, cat; dance, mouse;
We’ll have a wedding at our good house.
一只猫蹑手蹑脚地走出谷仓，
手臂下面夹着一对风笛。
她唱不了任何东西除了乱拉着嘀嘀声。
老鼠嫁给了大黄蜂，
风笛，猫；舞蹈，老鼠；
我们将在好房子里举行一场婚礼。

The cats went out to serenade
And on a banjo sweetly played;
And summer nights they climbed a tree
And sand, "My love, oh, come to me!"

用一台班卓琴美妙演奏；
在这夏夜它们爬上了树，
唱着：“吾爱，哦，来我怀抱！”
Come To The Window
Come to the window,
My baby, with me,
And look at the stars
That shine on the sea!
There are two little stars
That play bo-peep
With two little fish
Far down in the deep;
And two little frogs
Cry "Neap, neap, neap;"
I see a dear baby
That should be asleep.
来窗边，
我的宝贝，和我一起，
看看繁星，
闪耀在海上。
有两颗小星星，
他们玩躲猫猫
和两条小鱼儿
远在深海里；
两只小青蛙，
叫着：“小潮，小潮，小潮；”（偶疑心这是象声词）
我看见一个亲爱的宝贝
他该睡觉了
Curly Locks, Curly Locks
Curly Locks, Curly Locks,
Will you be mine?
You shall not wash dishes,
Nor feed the swine,
But sit on a cushion
And sew a fine seam,
And sup upon strawberries,
Sugar, and cream.
古力·洛克斯，古力·洛克斯，
你会成为我的吗？

不必喂猪，
但要坐在一个垫子上
牢牢地缝合裂口，
吃一口草莓，
带着糖，和奶油。
When a good King Arthur rule this land
When good King Arthur ruled this land,
He was a goodly king;
He stole three pecks of barley-meal
To make a bag-pudding.

他是一位伟大的王
他偷了三袋麦片
为了做一个大布丁

And stuffed it well with plums;
And in it put great lumps of fat,
As big as my two thumbs.
这个王做的布丁
放进许多葡萄干
还放进了一块大奶油
就像我的两个拇指那么大
The king and queen did eat thereof,
And noblemen beside;
And what they could not eat that night,
The queen next morning fried.
国王和皇后吃了布丁
身边的贵族们也吃了
那天晚上他们什么也没吃
第二天早上皇后被油煎了
