Amazing thread!

In the 80s in Durban (South Africa) we sang it like this:

Aqua Della ooh ma
Qua qua qua qua
Fire semma trica trica trica trica
Floor floor floor floor floor [to an American that would sound like ‘flaw’ - no r!]
Fire 1 2 3 4 5!

I thought it was Latin. Actually just very corrupted which is why it’s taken me years to Google it successfully.
