Bring the hoop,
and bring the ball,
Come with happy
faces all;

Let us make
a merry ring,
Talk and laugh,
and dance and sing

Quickly, quickly,
come away,
For it is
a pleasant day.

Girls and boys,
come out to play
The moon does shine
as bright as day.

Leave your supper and
leave your sleep
And come with your playfellows
into the street.

Come with a whoop,
come with a call,
Come with a goodwill
or come not at all.
