Post Nursery Rymes~! - 10-28-2009, 03:55 AM

Do you guys know any Japanese nursery ryhmes/songs(kids songs)? Like here in the U.S we got Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Jack and Jill, you know Mother goose nursery rhymes. I know this one(its translated in english though):

Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms,
Blanketing the countryside,
As far as you can see.
Is it a mist, or clouds?
Fragrant in the morning sun.
Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms,
Flowers in full bloom.


Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms,
Across the Spring sky,
As far as you can see.
Is it a mist, or clouds?
Fragrant in the air.
Come now, come,
Let's look, at last!

I'm told this is a rough translation of a child's song called 'Yuuyake Koyake' [I believe]. I'm more familiar with Chinese stuff.

Fiery Sunset

The day ends with a fiery sunset
The mountain temple’s bell rings
Let everyone go home, hand in hand
The crows go home together too

After the children returned home
Appeared the big, round moon.
While the baby birds dream,
In the sky the golden stars twinkle
