lady bird

According to Wikipedia, Ladybird or popularly known in the US as "ladybug" is referred to an English nursery rhyme. There are several versions of it, but as quoted from Wikipedia, this is how these popular versions go: "Ladybird, ladybird fly away home, Your house is on fire and your children are gone, All except one, And her name is Ann, And she hid under the baking pan. Ladybird, ladybird, fly away home, Your house is on fire, Your children shall burn! Ladybug, ladybug, fly away home. Your house is on fire; Your children all roam. Except little Nan Who sits in her pan Weaving her laces as fast as she can." There were superstitious beliefs about this tiny bug and one of these states "that you should chant the verse if a ladybird lands on you: if it then flies away again, your wish will come true."
