Mary Had a Little Lamb Little Lamb Little Lamb (originale)

Mary had a little lamb,
His fleece was white as snow,
Ev’rywhere that Mary went,
That lamb was sure to go.
And you could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
He followed her to school one day,
It was against the rules,
Made the children laugh and play to See a lamb at school.
You could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Soon the teacher turned it out,
Still it lingered near,
Waited patiently about till
Mary did appear.
You could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
«But the lamb loved Mary so»,
The eager children cry,
«And Mary loves the lamb, you know»,
The teacher did reply.
And you could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
(Ev'ry body singing)

(traduzione)

Mary ha un piccolo agnello,
Il suo vello era bianco come la neve,
Ovunque andasse Maria,
Quell'agnello sarebbe sicuramente andato.
E li sentivi cantare:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
L'ha seguita a scuola un giorno,
Era contro le regole,
Ha fatto ridere e giocare i bambini per vedere un agnello a scuola.
Potevi sentirli cantare:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Presto l'insegnante lo ha scoperto,
Eppure indugiava vicino,
Aspettato pazientemente fino a
Maria è apparsa.
Potevi sentirli cantare:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
«Ma l'agnello ha tanto amato Maria»,
I bambini desiderosi piangono,
«E Maria ama l'agnello, lo sai»,
L'insegnante ha risposto.
E li sentivi cantare:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
(Tutti i corpi cantano)
