一
Calico pie, The little birds fly
Down to the calico-tree:
Their wings were blue,
And they sang "Tilly-loo!"
Till away they flew;And they never came back to me!
They never came back, They never came back,
They never came back to me!
克裏克餅，小鳥兒飛不停，
飛到克裏克樹上棲：
藍色的翅膀多美麗，
唱著歌兒“嘀哩哩！”
拍拍翅膀就飛離；他們再也不飛回我身邊！
他們再也不飛回，再也不飛回，
再也不飛回到我身邊！
二
Calico jam, The little Fish swam
Over the Syllabub Sea.
He took off his hat To the Sole and the Sprat,
And the Willeby-wat:
But he never came back to me;
He never came back, He never came back,
He never came back to me.
克裏克果醬，小魚兒流浪，
穿越西拉布海洋。
他向比目魚、鯡魚，還有威裏比蛙魚，
脫下帽兒來行禮：
可他再不遊回我身邊！
他再也不遊回，再也不遊回，
再也不遊回到我身邊！
三
Calico ban, The little Mice ran
To be ready in time for tea; Flippity flup,
They drank it all up, And danced in the cup:
But they never came back to me;
They never came back, They never came back,
They never came back to me
克裏克布告，小老鼠們跑，
跑去趕時間吃茶點；水果、糕點真新鮮，
他們吃得狼吞虎咽，在茶杯裏舞翩翩：
可他們再也不跑回我身邊！
他們再也不跑回，再也不跑回，
再也不跑回到我身邊！
四
Calico drum, The Grasshoppers come,
The Butterfly, Beetle, and Bee,
Over the ground, Around and round,
With a hop and a bound;
But they never came back,
They never came back, They never came back.
They never came back to me.
克裏克鼓，蚱蜢跳出，
