Loup y es-tu?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Loup y es-tu?" (in French: Promenons nous dans les bois) is a popular French children's song, from at least the XIX century.[1] It sings about how a group enters a forest where no wolf is to be seen and "as long as he isn't there, he won't eat us". During the refrain the wolf is called, but each time he is busy putting on one of his clothes. Near the end he finally arrives, which is the sign for the children to run away.
There is an equivalent English version from the same period,[2] and similar games exist in Rumania and Greece[3]
