Martine was nice enough to write me, sending the words to Humpty Dumpty in English and Norwegian for everyone who’s interested…
Humpty Dumpty
(English)Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall.
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses
And all the king’s men,
Couldn’t put Humpty together again.Lille Trille
(Norwegian)Lille Trille
satt på hylle.
Lille Trille
ramlet ned.
Ingen mann i dette land
Lille Trille bøte kan.
Later, Martine sent the lyrics to Row, Row, Row Your Boat in English and Norwegian…
Row, Row, Row Your Boat
(English)Row, Row, Row Your Boat
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily.
Life is but a dream!Ro, ro, ro din båt
(Norwegian)Ro, ro, ro din båt.
Ta din åre fatt.
Vuggende, vuggende, vuggende, vuggende
over Kattegatt.
Many thanks to Martine for sending the Norwegian versions of Row, Row, Row Your Boat and Humpty Dumpty.

Rory, you should use the links at the top of this page to Mama Lisa’s World French site (“with French translation”) and to “Mother Goose in French” to find both songs translated into French
