ОглавлениеLavender’s blue, dilly, dilly!
Rosemary’s green;
When I am king, dilly, dilly!
You shall be queen.
Call up your men, dilly, dilly!
Set them to work;
Some to the plough, dilly, dilly!
Some to the cart.
Some to make hay, dilly, dilly!
Some to cut corn;
While you and I, dilly, dilly!
Keep ourselves warm.
