Children's Poetry Дорогие школьники\ Маленькие шедевры, которые вы можете прочитать и выучить наизусть, входят в золотую коллекцию английской детской поэзии. Все они в старину назывались «песнями матушки Гусыни» или «стишками матушки Гусыни» (Mother Goose Songs / Rhymes). Загадочная фигура «матушки Гусыни» своим происхождением обязана тому, что традиционной сказительницей в прошлом часто была старуха крестьянка, пасшая деревенских гусей. Таких песенок-стишков собралось более тысячи. Некоторые из них смешные, некоторые трогательные, в некоторых содержатся мудрые наставления. Все они выразительны и музыкальны. Теперь вы можете убедиться в этом сами. Some Traditional English Poems to Learn {from Mother Goose Rhymes) Humpty Dumpty Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king’s horses and all the king’s men Cannot put Humpty Dumpty together again. 65 The Black Hen Hickety, pickety, my black hen, She lays eggs for gentlemen; Gentlemen come every day To see what my black hen doth lay. Sometimes nine and sometimes ten, Hickety, pickety, my black hen. A Pig As I went to Bonner, I met a pig Without a wig Upon my word and honour. The Flying Pig Dickory, dickory, dare. The pig flew up in the air; The man in brown soon brought him down, Dickory, dickory, dare. 66 The Cat and the Fiddle Hey, diddle, diddle. The cat and the fiddle. The cow jumped over the moon; The little dog laughed To see such sport. And the dish ran away with the spoon. Cockcrow The cock crows in the morn To tell us to rise. And he that lies late Will never be wise; For early to bed. And early to rise Is the way to be healthy. Wealthy and wise. Diddle, Diddle, Dumpling Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John Went to bed with his trousers on; One shoe off, and one shoe on. Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John. Hector Protector Hector Protector was dressed all in green; Hector Protector was sent to the Queen. The Queen did not like him. Nor more did the King; So Hector Protector was sent back again.
