English text
Ding dong bell.
Merrily, merrily rung the bells,
The bells of St Michael's tower,
When Richard Penlake, and Rebecca his wife,
Arrived at the church door.
Merrily, merrily rung the bells,
The bells of St Michael's tower.
Richard Penlake was a cheerful man
Cheerful and frank and free,
But he led a sad life with Rebecca his wife,
For a terrible shrew was she.
Merrily, merrily rung the bells,
The bells of St Michael's tower.
Richard Penlake a scolding would take
Till patience availed no longer.
Richard Penlake a crab-stick would take,
And show her that he was the stronger.
Merrily, merrily rung the bells,
The bells of St Michael's tower.
