Nursery rhymes huh?

The famous amongst them would be the twinkle twinkle little star rhyme and every sings it but as famous as it may, but it’s not my favorite nursery rhyme. My favorite nursery rhyme would be

Row row row your boat gently down the stream
Merrily merrily merrily life is both a dream
And we would shout again
And we sing it again and again. As kids we were living a dream and but now we are adults. We have been introduced into the adult hood scam. I wished we could live that dream again.

Nkem mentioned nusery rhyme that she sings to children. My children nursery rhyme is in Igbo language and I don’t know if anyone here would be able to read it if I write it in Igbo language. Somehow I feel children listen more to those igbotic rhymes than the English ones.

Nwannunu nwanunu nta
Turuzaza turuza

Nwannunu nwanunu nta
Turuzaza turuza

Ino ebe ahu emegini
Turuzaza turuza

Anam aturu Nnem ose
Turuzaza turuza

Tukene ka isi atu
Tuu tuu

Tukene ka isi atu
Tuu tuu
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

As the child just hears the tuu tuu, they wee keep just keep quiet 🤣🤣

That’s my own favorite nursery rhyme in Igbo version…so you have both English and Igbo version…😂
