j

Il existe différents types de chansons enfantines : elles peuvent être éducatives (comptines), accompagner une danse (ronde), raconter une histoire (ballade) ou aider à l’endormissement (berceuse). Voici les éléments les plus connus de quelques célèbres chansons enfantines anglaises...

Mary had a little lamb
Mary had a little lamb, whose fleece was white as snow. And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go. It followed her to school one day which was against the rule. It made the children laugh and play, to see a lamb at school. And so the teacher turned it out, but still it lingered near, And waited patiently about, till Mary did appear. "Why does the lamb love Mary so ?" the eager children cry. "Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know."
the teacher did reply.

Humpty Dumpty
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men Couldn't put Humpty together again.

London Bridge is falling down
London Bridge is falling down, Falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down, My fair lady

Three blind mice
Three blind mice. Three blind mice.
See how they run. See how they run.
They all ran after the farmer's wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,
Did you ever see such a sight in your life,
As three blind mice ?
