My hands upon my head I place, (Do actions as described, then bring hands
down slowly & place them in lap.)
On my shoulders, on my face,
On my knees, & at my side,
Then behind me they will hide.
Then I raise them up So high
‘Till they almost reach the sky.
Swiftly count them-1,2,3,
And see how quietly they can be.

And they all belong to me.

Or make them all hide.

I can make them jump low.
I can fold them up quietly,
And hold them just so.
