收录于《谁杀了知更鸟》　　此首「谁杀了知更鸟」也有人翻做「知更鸟之死」，是鹅妈妈童谣中相当著名的一首，国外的鹅妈妈童谣集一般皆会收录，但来到国内，国内出版的鹅妈妈童谣集几乎不会收录这首「Who killed led Cock Robin?」。此首歌旋律轻快且优美，也是许多英国小孩朗朗上口的一首童谣。　　「Who killed led Cock Robin?」内容描述知更鸟(Cock Robin)原本被天上所有的鸟儿喜爱，最后却在小鸟审判(bird assizes)中死亡的故事。看似荒诞的童话故事，尤其是最后”下回的受审者”竟然是童谣一开始杀了知更鸟的麻雀，杀人者亦会受到审判，使得这首童谣更添加了因果循环的深层含意。　　也有不少的推理小说或推理漫画喜欢引用这首「Who killed led Cock Robin?」，如 S.S.范达因在 1928 年出版的著名推理小说“The Bishop Murder Case”(中译为主教杀人事件)中即引用了这首与其余两首鹅妈妈童谣===========+================+====================+==============4.When a good King Arthur rule this land 当亚瑟王统治这片土地的时候When good King Arthur ruled this land,He was a goodly king;He stole three pecks of barley-mealTo make a bag-pudding.当亚瑟王统治这片土地的时候他是一位优秀的国王为了做一个布丁他偷了三袋大麦粗粉A bag-pudding the king did make,And stuffed it well with plum;And in it put great lumps of fat,As big as my two thumbs.国王做的大布丁塞满了李子干还放进了一块大奶油像我的两个拇指那么大The king and queen did eat thereof,And noblemen beside;And what they could not eat that night,The queen next morning fried.国王和皇后吃了该吃的那份吃了身边贵族们的那份，还吃了那天晚上不该吃的那份，第二天早上皇后被油煎了备注：出自《少年的孵化声音》-《布丁小姐的悲剧》世上留传著许多关于亚瑟王的精彩故事，以及英勇的圆桌武士的传奇。他大约是在一千五百年前统治英国，打了许多场胜仗。但历史上是否存在这位王还有待查证。这首关于亚瑟王的童谣揭示了古代王族中的残忍吧。===============+=================+======================+=======5.Solomon Grundy 所罗门·格朗迪Solomon Grundy,Born on a Monday,Christened on Tuesday,Married on Wednesday,Took ill on Thursday,Worse on Friday,Died on Saturday,Buried on Sunday.This is the endOf Solomon Grundy.所罗门·格朗迪星期一（月曜日）出生星期二（火曜日）受洗星期三（水曜日）结婚星期四（木曜日）生病星期五（金曜日）病危星期六（土曜日）死亡星期天（日曜日）埋葬这就是所罗门·格朗迪的一生备注： 出自《God Child vol 5》- 《周日的所罗门·格朗迪》这个算是《God Child》里的一个特别短篇。把人的一生所会经历到的事融汇在这个短短的童谣里——一个星期里的7天。===================+====================+=======================6.Humpty Dumpty 蛋在断崖上孵化Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.All the king's horses,And all the king's men,Couldn't put Humpty together again.蛋在断崖上孵化，孵着孵着掉下来了。就算聚集了国王所有的马，就算聚集了国王所有的臣子，蛋也不能恢复原来的样子 。备注：收录在《少年孵化的声音》的扉页中。Humpty-dumpty是蛋的意思。字典里解释为胖矮人。=======================+===================+====================7.There was a lady all skin and bone 从前有个皮包骨的女人There was a lady all skin and bone,Sure such a lady was never known:It happened upon a certain day,This lady went to church to pray.从前有个皮包骨的女人，当然你从没听说过这样的女人：一切发生在某一天，这位女士去教堂作祷告。When she came to the church stile,There she did rest a little while;When she came to the church yard,There the hells so loud she heard.当她来到教堂阶梯，她停了一小会；当她来到教堂墓园，她听见地狱的呻吟声是如此响亮。When she came to the church door,She stopped to rest a little more;When she came the church within,The parson prayed 'gainst pride and sin.当她来到教堂的门口，她又停了一会；当她进入教堂，牧师正抗拒着虚荣与罪恶作着祷告。On looking up, on looking down,She saw a dead man on the ground;And from his nose unto his chin,The worms crawled out,the worms crawled in.上看，下看，她看见一个死人躺在地上；从他的鼻子到下巴，蛆们爬出，蛆们蠕进。Then she unto the parson said,Shall I be so when I am dead?O yes!O yes, the parson said,You will be so when you are dead.然后她对牧师说，我死后会变成这样吗？噢，是的！噢，是的，牧师说道，你死后就会变成这样。======================+===================+===================+=8.There was a man, a very untidy man 从前有个男子There was a man,a very untidy man,Whose fingers could nowhere to be fonudto put in his tomb.He had rolled his head far underneath the bed;He had left his legsand arms lying all over the room.从前有个男子一个没出息的男子他的手指到处找不到懒得动手把他埋在坟墓里。他把头滚落到床下四肢散落在房间里。备注 ： 出自《谁杀了知更鸟》-《布丁小姐的悲剧》=====================+====================+================+====9.Crooked man 性格扭曲的人There was a crooked man,and he walked a crooked mile,He found a crooked sixpenceagainst a crooked stile;He bought a crooked cat,which caught a crooked mouse,And they all lived together in a little crooked house.有个性格扭曲的人走在一条长一里的扭曲的路上手里那着扭曲的六便士踏在扭曲的台阶上他买了一只扭曲的猫猫捉了一只扭曲的老鼠他们一起住在扭曲的小房子里备注： 出自《God Child vol.1》-《Crooked man》　　此首童谣很明显的描述一名精神失常的男子，他与他身边的事物皆是「扭曲」的，歌词描述的十分贴近现实精神疾病患者的模样，以第三人称的角度，来看待他的生活与身边的事物，以「扭曲」代表与正常人生活相反的一面。　　在黑暗的时代中，压力过大以致于精神失常或发疯的人不在少数，以现代来说，患有精神疾病的人其实也不少，他们的生活是「扭曲」的，在我们的眼里看起来他们也是「扭曲」的一群人，所以用「crook」(扭曲)来连贯这整首歌词是非常贴切的。==========+===================+===================+=============10.Baa, Baa, Black sheep 黑羊Baa, baa, black sheep,Have you any wool ?Yes, sir, yes, sir,Three bags full;One for the master,And one for the dame,And one for the little boyWho lives down the
