Subject: RE: Origins: Chad Gadya: non-traditional version
Jack Campin, the Rattlin' Bog (of which there is indeed a Yiddish version, probably an adaptation of a German song) is not particularly close to Chad Gadya, but if you have a look at the site https://www.jewishfolksongs.com/en/chad-gadya-related-folksongs you will see examples of songs with very similar motifs to those in Chad Gadya.
