Hello again and will come back to happy hour

欢迎你又回到jogua from the background music

You know it's our halloween special again in the past

When we were doing this type of scary episodes

We did things like terrifying places to visit monsters in your dreams

Urban legends things that are usually seen as scary

But today we're going to do something completely different so first of all imagine a peaceful scene of childhood

A mom or dad creddling their sleepy baby softly whispering a lullaby in its year

As it closeses his eyes drifts off to a land of dreams

我们一般听到lullaby 摇篮曲或者是nursery rmant 童谣

想到的都是这样安静祥和的景象

The lolabyse and nursery hymes are often soothing or funny mealities shared with kids to either put them to sleep or help teach them simple new words

We have them in chinese as well lots of them usually we wouldn't think about them twice

But do you ever have that feeling

That certain sentences in a nursery ryme just doesn't seem quite right

Some of them make you feel uneasy

可能会让你觉得有莫名的不安感

Others are downright ery or creepy

We talked about these two words

Ery and creepy

就是这种诡异感

The thing is some of the most beloved nursery rhymes in english language

Have their origins in british and early american history

And they usually concealed hidden meanings

They were easy to remember and could be spread by word of mouth

接童谣最开始未必是童谣

而只不过是口口相传的歌谣

A way of communicating the news at a time

When most people could read so in today's episode

We're going to look at some of the creepist nursery rhymes in english language ever and their dark back stories definitely don't share this information too freely with your kids number one on the list

Ring around the roses

Way ring around the roses

A pocketful opposes

A tissue

A tissue we all fall down

Even though historians have different opinions about this one

One of the most widespread back stories for this sweep sounding nursery ryme is the plague e the black dedek

虽然到今天还是很有争议

但是很多人都认为这首歌谣其实跟当年肆虐欧洲的黑死病或者鼠疫有关

Ring around the roses is not actually about kids running around a rose bush all care free

But about the plate that killed millions of people in the mid thirteen hundreds listen to this rrime

Carefully the symptoms of contracting the plague included a red rash in the shape of a ring on the skin as well as sneezing

当年感染鼠疫的症状就有出红色的圈状的皮疹

还有包括打喷嚏

So bring around the roses and a tissue is sneezing pocket full of poses

This might infer to how people would fill their pockets with sweet smelling items to cover up a horrible smell of death

Personally i've heard this particular nursery ryme in so many horror iles second on the list three blind mice they lilife

Did you ever see such a thing in your life as three blite mice this one is actually quite creepy without the historical context

It's weird to think that this is one of the most famous nursery rhymes ever because heprepretty violent the dark back story behind it queen marry ed first is the farmerers wise mentioned also known as bloody mary

被人称为血血美丽丽的丽伊一

A ruthless less queen known her inteinterest for everything involving torture and s the three blind mice is meant to refer to three protestanants

Who are accused of plotting against queen mary the first 三只老鼠实际上暗指的是想要反抗玛丽一世的三位新教徒

And the ending of the story

Well

Although she didn't actually cut off the talils of the protestants as in the hyme instead bloody mary burnt the mice at the stake

血腥玛丽最后是活活的烧死了这三位信教徒

Number three on the list

Mary marry quite contrary with super aa bels and cauco shart friat pretty made too in a row

Queen mary the first was so popular or maybe so infamous

She actually got a couple of nursery runms inspired by her

The garden here is set to refer to a grave yard

Because as we learned from the three blblind ice quequemarry was was big big an an of killing people

Sofver bells and cocoo shells refer to marries preferred instruments of torture

Our sofver bells 和coco shell 有可能是他当时使用了一些刑具

Wow

Pretty mates seem to refer to diguility

Which was also nicknamed the madden back

Then pretty 子在这里未必是指少女

而可能是暗指的当年被戏称为苏格兰少女的断头台

Number four on the list

Rockyybaby

Baby

When the window who's the cradle will

Will rowhen the the oubrebreador will fall and down

Welcome baby

Rockbybabon the treree top

When the wind blows the cradle will rock

When the bell breaks the cradle will fall

And then welcome baby

Cradle and all pretty spooky on the zone

Right

Why would anyone find a baby falling from a tree top peaceful

But the possible backstory might be even worse a popular interpretation of this frame states

That it actually about the sun of king james

The second of england

A marof modern

It was widely beliebeliethat that boboy not not their son at all

But a child was brourought into birththroom room and passed off at own

据说这首童谣暗指的是当年英格兰的国王詹姆斯暗示为了留下子私

找人偷偷抱来了一个孩子伪装成自己的儿子

Apparently cradles were sometimes hung in trees at the time

But instead of a soft breeze rocking the baby back and forth a thieve could come to steel one for the king and queen leading the cradle to fall baby and all the next one on the list

Who killed cock robin

Who killed cock robin

Who killed cock robin

I said the spirrow with my ball and darrow i can could wrop in this one is so strange

That nobody knows quite what to make of it

The entire song talks about a murder trial in a forest

Where birds and insects and some other animals attended some believe it was created in reference to old religious beliefs

整个童谣讲的是一只知更鸟被杀死之后

各种动物参与的一场诡异异常的审判和随之而来的songly historians aren't certain

But the image of every bird around

Having a formal funeral for murdered bird is a perfect combination of the weird spooky and violent imagery

That is commonplace in some old nursery rounds the last one

This one really sounds creepy to me

Even that was very simple

This is peter peter pumpkin eater

Peter peter pumpkin eater head a wife and couldn't keeper

He put her in a pumpkin shell and there he kept her very well

Peter

Peter pumpkin eahad had wife fe couldn't keeper he put her in a pumpkin shell and there he kept her very well

The wife that couldn't be kept in this rrime didn't keep running away or anything rather peter got angry at her

Murdered her and hit her body in a pumpkin

An even more extreme interpretation is that

It's about the thirteenth century english king john who famously breicked a rebellious nobels

Wife into a wall to staff to death

So that ends today's list of some of the creepiest lollabyze and nursery rines

And they're even more terrifying background stories

Lollabse are meant to give us a sense of calm care and peace

But in reality

Our most popular songs and rhymes might just be a mask for some rather terrifying tales in history

And as for the true meaning of some of these nursery rymes

It remains a mystery perhaps never to be solved

And on that note good night and sleep tight and perhaps seeing a different lullaby tonight
