TREE ON THE HILL

On yonder hill there stands a tree;

Tree on the hill, and the hill stood still.

And on the tree there was a branch;

Branch on the tree, tree on the hill, and the hill

stood still.

And on the branch there was a nest;

Nest on the branch, branch on the tree, tree on

the hill, and the hill stood still.

And in the nest there was an egg;

Egg in the nest, nest on the branch, branch on

the tree, tree on the hill, and the hill stood

still.

And in the egg there was a bird;

Bird in the egg, egg in the nest, nest on the

branch, branch on the tree, tree on the hill,

and the hill stood still.

And on the bird there was a feather;

Feather on the bird, bird in the egg, egg in the

nest, nest on the branch, branch on the tree,

tree on the hill, and the hill stood still.
