Let's learn and sing a rhyme today. In German, it's called 'Lisa hat ein kleines lamm'. In English, it is 'Mary had a little lamb'. In Italics, we have the German lyrics. Aligned right we have its English translation and then we have the English lyrics of the same. Both German and English versions follow the same tune. Have fun!
Lisa Hat ein kleines Lamm
kleines Lamm
kleines Lamm
Lisa Hat ein kleines Lamm
Mit Fell so weiß wie Schnee.
Lisa has a little lamb
little lamb
little lamb
Lisa has a little lamb
With fur as white as snow.
Mary had a little lamb
Little lamb, little lamb
Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece was white as snow
Überall wo Lisa geht
Lisa geht
Lisa geht
Überall wo Lisa geht
da geht das Lamm mit hin.
Everywhere Lisa goes
Lisa goes
Lisa goes
Everywhere Lisa goes
the lamb goes there too.
Everywhere that Mary went
Mary went, Mary went
Everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go.
Es geht mit ihr zur Schule dann
Schule dann
Schule dann
Es geht mit ihr zur Schule dann
doch das ist nicht erlaubt
It then goes to school with her
School then
School then
It then goes to school with her
but that is not allowed
It followed her to school one day
School one day, school one day
It followed her to school one day
Which was against the rules
Die Kinder fang zu lachen an
lachen an
lachen an
Die Kinder fang zu lachen an
Das Lämmchen dort zu sehn.
The children started laughing
laugh at
laugh at
The children started laughing
To see the little lamb there.
It made the children laugh and play
Laugh and play, laugh and play
It made the children laugh and play
To see the lamb at school
Der Lehrer wrift das Lämmchen raus
Lämmchen raus
Lämmchen raus
Der Lehrer wrift das Lämmchen raus
doch es bleibt in der Näh.
The teacher is wrapping the lamb out
Get the lamb out
Get the lamb out
The teacher is wrapping the lamb out
but it remains close.
And so the teacher turned it out
Turned it out, turned it out
And so the teacher turned it out
But still it lingered near
Warum liebt das Lamm Lisa so
Lisa so
Lisa so
Warum liebt das Lamm Lisa so
Fragen die Kinder laut
Why does the lamb love Lisa so much
Lisa like that
Lisa like that
Why does the lamb love Lisa so much
The children ask aloud
Why does the lamb love Mary so?
Love Mary so, love Mary so
Why does the lamb love Mary so?
The eager children cry
Weil Lisa liebt ihr Lämmchen so
Lämmchen so
Lämmchen so
Weil Lisa liebt ihr Lämmchen so
Sagt dann der Lehrer schnell.
Because Lisa loves her little lamb so much
little lamb so
little lamb so
Because Lisa loves her little lamb so much
Then the teacher says quickly.
Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know
The lamb, you know, the lamb, you know
Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know
The teacher did reply
I hope you all enjoyed it.
For now, keep practicing. Keep Safe. Bis später. Tschüss.
