Counting-out Rhyme
(English)

C'est demain dimanche
La fête à ma tante
Qui balaie sa chambre
Avec sa rob' blanche
Ell' trouve une orange,
L'épluche et la mange
Oh ! la gross' gourmande !

Tomorrow's Sunday,
It's my aunt's day;
She sweeps her room
With her white dress;
She finds an orange,
Peels it and eats it.
Oh! What a greedy one!
