Glenda shared the video below with the following…
“Lil Fi is happy to have me share this. She comes to our centre every fortnight and spends a half hour in each room. This is a favourite song especially in the babies’ room. Can anyone shed some light on this song please? I think it is Dutch.”
The language has been confirmed as Dutch. If anyone can share the lyrics, please let us know in the comments below. Thanks in advance! -Mama Lisa
UPDATE: We got the words and translation and posted it on Mama Lisa’s World! The link is We zijn er bijna (We’re Almost There).

It’s sung on the way to see someone. It means “We are almost there (3x) but not all the way.” Still trying to find the Dutch.

I can send you the notes. It’s a song we sing with the kids when we are walking a long way. I have the version from the youtube video and the version that is a little different that I learned as a kid (Belgium).
