Rex calthae coquens ientaculum
In culina reginae erat.
Regina canens clavilem
In exedrium liberis regis erat.
Fle infans, fle. Tuum matrem suspirare coge.
Illa vetus satis est ut melius cognoscere debeat.
Fle igitur infans, fle.
Rex carpens flores in horto
Amico qui ludere venit erat.
Regina pingens pictoras
In cubiculo otio liberis.
Fle infans, fle. Tuum matrem suspirare coge.
Illa vetus satis est ut melius cognoscere debeat.
Fle igitur infans, fle.
Ducissa Calcordii semper laetusque
Adveniens cenae erat.
Dux cum nuntio vicinam apud tabernam
Quaestiones habens erat.
Fle infans, fle. Tuum matrem suspirare coge.

Meridie conventus est,
Datus liberis animi causa,
Circum mensam consilio cum illis mortuis
In tenebras cum voces e nusquam.
Fle infans, fle. Tuum matrem suspirare coge.

Cry baby cry, make your mother sigh.
She’s old enough to know better.
The king of Marigold was in the kitchen
Cooking breakfast for the queen.
The queen was in the parlour
Playing piano for the children of the king.
Cry baby cry, make your mother sigh.
She’s old enough to know better.
So cry baby cry.
The king was in the garden
Picking flowers for a friend who came to play.
The queen was in the playroom
Painting pictures for the children’s holiday.
Cry baby cry, make your mother sigh.
She’s old enough to know better.
So cry baby cry.
The duchess of Kirkcaldy always smiling
And arriving late for tea.
The duke was having problems
With the message at the local bird & bee.
Cry baby cry, make your mother sigh.
She’s old enough to know better.
So cry baby cry.
At twelve o’clock a meeting round the table
For a seance in the dark
With voices out of nowhere
Put on specially by the children for a lark.
Cry baby cry, make your mother sigh.
She’s old enough to know better.
So cry baby cry.
Cry cry cry, make your mother sigh.
She’s old enough to know better.
So cry baby cry.
