- There was a little man indeed, he sowed a garden full of seeds
The seeds began to grow like a garden full of snow
The snow began to melt like a ship with a pelt.
The ship began to sail like a bird without a tail.
The bird began to fly like an eagle in the sky,
The sky began to fall Lord of Mercy on us all. - Round the green (green) gravel /
The grass grows green
Many a lady is fit to be seen,
Washed in milk dressed in silk
The last pops down.
A big ring is formed and they say the rhyme and suddenly they all pop down and the last pops down gets a slap of a strap.- Collector
