A ring, a ring o' roses,\\
A pocket full of posies;\\

//Children hold hands and dance around in a circle//

Tishoo, tishoo,\\
All stand still.\\

//Children hold still//

The King has sent his daughter,\\
To fetch a pail of water;\\

//Children hold hands and dance around in a circle//

Tishoo, tishoo,\\
All fall down.\\

//Children fall to the floor//

{{ :dikt:parade.jpg?200}}

The bird upon the steeple,\\
Sits high above the people;\\

//Children hold hands and dance around in a circle//

Tishoo, tishoo,\\
All kneel down.\\

(Children kneel)

The wedding bells are ringing,\\
The boys and girls are singing;\\

//Children hold hands and dance around in a circle//

Tishoo, tishoo,\\
All fall down.\\

//Children fall to the floor//
