Sing a song of sixpence 唱一首六便士之歌

Sing a song of sixpence,
唱一首六便士之歌，

A pocket full of rye;
一袋滿滿的黑麥；

Four and twenty blackbirds,
二十四隻黑畫眉，

Baked in a pie.
放在派裡烤。
 




When the pie was opened,
當派被切開，

The birds began to sing;
畫眉開始唱歌；

Was not that a dainty dish,
那可不是美味的一餐

To set before the king ?
放在國王面前？



The king was in his counting-house,
國王在他的帳房，

Counting out his money;
數著他的錢；

The queen was in the parlour,
皇后在起居室，

Eating bread and honey.
吃著麵包和蜂蜜。



The maid was in the garden,
女僕在花園，

Hanging out the clothes,
曬衣服，

There came a little blackbird,
飛來一隻小黑畫眉，

And snapped off her nose.
啄走她的鼻子。
