Sospan Vach (The Little Saucepan)


My sweet Mary Ann's hurt her finger, My beese Mary Ann wed-dee bree'oo-oh,

And David the servant's feeling weak; An Dahv-ith uh gwas thim un yach.

And the baby's crying now in its cradle, My-ur bah-bahn un uh creed un cree-oh,

The cat's scratching Johnny on the cheek Ahr gath wed-dee crahv-ee John-ny
bach.
Sospan fach is boiling on the fire, Sos-pan vach un bare-we ar uh tahn,

Sospan fawr boils over on the floor, Sos-pan vow'r un bare-we a uh llauer,

The cat's scratching Johnny on the cheek. Ahr gath wed-dee crahv-ee John-ny
bach.
David's a soldier, Die bach uh soul-joor,

David's a soldier, Die bach uh soul-joor,

David's a soldier Dic bach uh soul-joor

His shirttail's hanging out. Ah choot-ee greese eh mahs.

And David the servant's in his grave; An Dahv-ith uh gwas un i vaith.

And the baby's sleeping now in his cradle, My-ur bah-bahn un uh creed wed-dee

The cat has decided to behave. Ahr gath wed-ee hee-no meh-oon haith.

David's a soldier, Die bach uh soul-joor

David's a soldier, Die bach uh soul-joor

David's a soldier, Die bach uh soul-joor

With his shirttail hanging out.
Ah choot-ee greese eh mahs.
