There were two birds sat on a stone,
Fa, la, la, la, lal, de;
One flew away, and then there was one,
Fa, la, la, la, lal, de;
The other flew after,
And then there was none,
Fa, la, la, la, lal, de;
And so the poor stone
Was left all alone,
Fa, la, la, la, lal, de.




Cock Robin got up early,
At the break of day,
And went to Jenny's window
To sing a roundelay.


He sang Cock Robin's love
To the pretty Jenny Wren,
And when he got unto the end,
Then he began again.
