Over in the meadow

Over in the meadow in the sand in the sun,

lived an Old mother turtle and her Little turtle one.

"Dig," said the mother, "I dig," said the one,

and they Dug all day in the sand in the sun.

Over in the meadow where the Stream runs blue,

lived an Old mother fish and her Little fishies two.

"Swim," said the mother, "We swim," said the two,

and they Swam all day where the stream runs blue.

Over in the meadow in a hole in the tree,

Lived an old mother owl and her Little owls three.

"Whoo," said the mother, "We whoo," said the three,

and they Whooed all day in the hole in the tree.

Over in the meadow by the old barn door,

Lived an old mother frog and her Little froggies four.

"Jump," said the mother, "We jump," said the four,

and they Jumped all day by the old barn door.

Over in the meadow in a snug beehive,

Lived an old mother bee and her Little bees five.

"Buzz," said the mother, "We buzz," said the five,

and they Buzzed all day in the snug beehive.

One little turtle went dig dig dig dig dig

Two little fishies went swim swim swim

Three little owls went whoo--ooo-ooo

Four little froggies went jump jump jump jump jump

Five little bees went bzzz bzzzz bz bz bz bz bz
