Blackbirds and Thrushes (originale)

If all the young ladies were blackbirds and thrushes
If all the young ladies were blackbirds and thrushes
Then all the young men would go beating the bushes

If all the young ladies were ducks in the water
If all the young ladies were ducks in the water
Then all the young men would go swimming and laughter
Right-fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
If all the young ladies were rushes a-growing
If all the young ladies were rushes a-growing
Then all the young men would get scythes and go mowing
Right-fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
If the ladies were all trouts and salmon so lovely
If the ladies were all trouts and salmon so lively
Then divel the men would go fishing on friday
Right-fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
If all the young ladies were hares on the mountain
If all the young ladies were hares on the mountain
Then the men with their hounds would be out without countin'
Right-fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
Fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
Fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey

Blackbirds and Thrushes (traduzione)

Se tutte le signorine fossero merli e tordi
Se tutte le signorine fossero merli e tordi
Poi tutti i giovani andavano a battere i cespugli
Destra-fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
Se tutte le signorine fossero anatre nell'acqua
Se tutte le signorine fossero anatre nell'acqua
Poi tutti i giovani andavano a nuotare e a ridere
Destra-fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
Se tutte le signorine fossero giunchi in crescita
Se tutte le signorine fossero giunchi in crescita
Quindi tutti i giovani avrebbero preso le falci e sarebbero andati a falciare
Destra-fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
Se le donne fossero tutte trote e salmoni così adorabili
Se le signore fossero tutte trote e salmoni così vivaci
Poi gli uomini sarebbero andati a pescare venerdì
Destra-fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
Se tutte le signorine fossero lepri sulla montagna
Se tutte le signorine fossero lepri sulla montagna
Quindi gli uomini con i loro segugi sarebbero usciti senza contare
Destra-fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
Fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
Fol-del-dal Diddle-da-diddle-dal-dey
