Second Grade Lyrics

1. Autumn Fires

Poem by Robert Louis Stevenson

In the other gardens 
And all up the vale, 
From the autumn bonfires 
See the smoke trail! 

Pleasant summer over 
And all the summer flowers, 
The red fire blazes, 
The grey smoke towers. 

Sing a song of seasons! 
Something bright in all! 
Flowers in the summer, 
Fires in the fall!

Ten Days and Counting

Ten Days and Counting ‘till Christmas is here!

My Spanish friends taught me numbers this year

2B, 2C: Follow along. Listen to their song.

Then join in the fun!

2A: Uno dos tres quarto cinco seis siete o-cho, nueve diez!

All: Feel all the joy in their hearts as they sing,

Counting the days ‘till the Christmas bells ring,

Oh, what a joy to share in their song.

All, come sing along

Uno dos tres cutro cinco seis site o-cho nueve diez!

2B, 2C: Ten Days and Counting ‘till Christmas is here!

2A: Feel the excitement this time of the year.

2B, 2C: Uno,

2A: dos, tres,

2B. 2C: cuatro

2A: cinco,

All: seis siete o-cho nueve diez!

2B, 2C: Christmas is here!

2A: Esta a qui!

Nun Gimel Hei Shin

Spin the dreidel, watch it dance.

Everyone come take a chance.

It’s my turn to spin the top.

Once it starts, where will it stop?

Nun, gimel, hei, shin!

Watch the dreidel spin,spin,spin.

Nun, gimel, hei, shin!

Everyone join in!

Nun, gimel, hei, shin!

Spin the dreidel, you might win.

Nun, gimel, hei shin!

Let the fun begin!

Spin the dreidel, watch it go.

Wil I win or will I owe?

Land on gimel, land on hei!

If it’s shin I have to pay.

Nun, gimel, hei shin!

Watch the dreidel spin, spin, spin.

Nun, gimel, hei, shin!

Everyone join in.
