I Was Born |
| I was born at Half Past 12, almost One in the morning; |
| I was born at Half Past One, almost Two in the morning. |
| Now my birthday comes again and I don’t know how old I am; |
| Half past One or Two or Three, almost 4 in the morning. |
| I was born at Half Past Four, almost 5 in the morning; |
| I was born at Half Past Six, almost 7 in the morning; |
| How old am I, you ask of me? |
| One year younger than I used to be; |
| Half Past 7, Half Past 8, Half Past Nine in the morning. |
| I was born at Half Past Nine, almost Ten in the morning; |
| I was born at ½ past Ten, almost 'Leven in the morning; |
| Today my age is Tweedle and 'twee I’m prettier than I used to be; |
| Half Past 'Leven, Half Past 'Leven, almost 12 in the morning. |
