Over in the Meadow Songtext
von Raffi

Over in the meadow in a pond in the sun,
Lived an old mother duck and her little duck one,
Quack said the mother,
Quack said the one,
And they quacked and were happy in their pond in the sun.

Over in the meadow in stream so blue,
Lived an old mother fish and her little fish two,
Bl-bl-bl-bl-bl said the mother,
Blp-blp said the two,
And they swam and were happy in the stream so blue.

Over in the meadow in a nest in the tree,
Lived an old mother bird and her birdies three,
Wr-wr-wr-wrii said the mother
Whr-whr-whr said the three,
And they sang and were happy in their nest in the tree.


Over in the meadow on rock by the shore,
Lived and old mother frog and her little frogs four,
Ribbit said the mother,
Ribbit-ribbit-ribbit-ribbit said the four,
And they croaked and were happy on the rock by the shore.

Over in the meadow big bee hive,
Lived and old mother bee and little bees five,
Bizzip said the mother,
Biz-biz-biz-biz-biz said the five,
And the buzzed and were happy in the big beehive.

Over in the meadow in the noonday sun,
There was a pretty mother and her baby one,
Listen said the mother to the ducks and the bees,
To the frogs and the fish and the birds in the trees,

Biz-biz-biz-biz-biz said the five,
Ribbit-ribbit-ribbit-ribbit said the four,
Whr-whr-whr said the three,
Blp-blp said the two,
Quack said the one,
And the little baby laughed just to hear such fun!
