I had a little nut tree
I had a little nut tree, nothing would it bear.But a silver nutmeg and a golden pear.
The King of Spain's daughter came to visit me,
And all for the sake of my little nut tree.
I skipped over water, I danced over sea,
And all the birds in the air couldn't catch me.
わたしのところの木の実のなる木
銀のナツメグと金の梨が実ります
スペインの王女が訪ねてきたのも
木の実がなる木がお目当てなのです
水の上を跳ね 海の上で踊るわたしは
どんな鳥でさえ 捕まえられない
