Thread Name: Lyr Req: Songs about Rabbits
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs about Rabbits.
From an old thread:
I cannot attest to the current popularity of another song I know, but it seems to go back quite a way (forgive any spelling errors):
Flevit Lepus
Flevit lepus parvalus
Clamens altis vocibus
Quid fecci hominibus
Quod me secunter canibus? (repeat X2)
Roughly translated:
The Little Rabbit
The poor little rabbit
Exclaims in a loud voice
Why makes men
Always chase me with dogs? (or sticks, depending upon translator)
