The Real Mother Goose  by Blanche Fisher Wright

[Illustration]

Two Birds

There were two birds sat on a stone,

Fa, la, la, la, lal, de;

One flew away, and then there was one,

Fa, la, la, la, lal, de;

The other bird flew after,

And then there was none,

Fa, la, la, la, lal, de;

And so the stone

Was left alone,

Fa, la, la, la, lal, de.
