Three blind mice, three blind mice,
See how they run, see how they run!
They all ran after the farmer's wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,
Did you ever see such a thing in your life,
As three blind mice?
Reminds me of this gem from Robert Burns' poem To a Mouse, 1786. >>> "The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry” >>> - Robert Burns - >>> (January 25, 1759 – July 21, 1796)
Um, you've rather translated that from the broad Scots. It really has to be recited in a strong Scottish accent :) http://www.robertburns.org.uk/Assets/Poems_Songs/toamouse.htm
Kind of difficult for a German to recite in Scottish brogue --- but the original poem is wonderful. Thank you John.
Not easy for an Englishman either :)
