Re: OT: Looking for Dutch children's song

This is the answer from my friend from Friesland, he recognized it immediately.
He sent me the so-called Stellingwarvian version of the song, from the Low
Saxon speaking South Eastern part of Friesland, so this version is not in Frisian
proper. He gave the advise to ask "Tresoar", a Frisian cultural and literary
organisation.

Ja, ik wete et! Ik zag drekt dat dit Suse nane poppe was. Et is een
wiegelietien, wodt dus zongen veur kleine kiender. We kennen et in et
Stellingwarfs ok, mar wel mit een stark Friese inslag. Et lietien komt in een
protte variaosies veur. Et staot zo in et Stellingwarfs Woordeboek:

Suse nane poppe,
poppe ligt in de groppe,
va en moe zo veer van huus,
die kan poppe niet roppe.

Mar... hoe et in et Fries is, wee 'k vanzels niet. Ie zollen Tresoar in Liwwadden
mailen kunnen... Die weten et grif wel! Ze staon wel bi'j de verwiezings op
mien webstee. Daor zit et Fries Letterkundig Museum ok bi'j in. Sukses!
