Hey Diddle Diddle Nursery Rhyme

Hey Diddle Diddle

Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle, The cow jumped over the moon; The little dog laughed to see such sport, And the dish ran away with the spoon. The playful violin filled the air with a jig, As the ginger cat, perched high on a rug, gave the strings a big dig. The cow, Daisy by name, watched with a moo and a sigh, Longing to join the fun, but the moon seemed awfully high. Suddenly, a tiny yelp, a flash of brown fur, The little dog, Pip, tumbled in, with a worried blur. "The dish has gone rogue!" he yipped with a fright, "Sprinted out the door, with the spoon held up tight!" The cat stopped his fiddling, a puzzled expression, The cow, Daisy, perked up with a newfound suggestion. "Perhaps," she mooed gently, "we can all give chase, Follow the dish's trail, and win back its rightful place!" With the cat leading the way, a determined meow, Pip and Daisy close behind, they didn't quite know how, They chased through the garden, past flowers so bright, The moon, a giant pearl, guiding them through the night. Finally, they spotted it, by the old oak tree, The runaway dish, with the spoon held so glee. A gentle breeze blew, the spoon clattered down, The dish looked quite sheepish, with a clattering frown. The cat, with a purr, retrieved the lost spoon, Pip and Daisy approached, under the harvest moon. The dish, full of remorse, apologized with a clatter, "I just wanted to join the fun," it whispered, a matter-of-fact patter. The friends, with kind hearts, decided to include, The dish in their games, a happy, playful mood. From then on, the cat fiddled, the cow jumped with glee, The dog yipped with delight, and the dish clattered merrily.

The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon;
The little dog laughed
To see such sport,
