<p>In <em>Kuroshitsuji</em>, they often sing a song that ends on "my fair lady," <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQv8Mq_H55s" rel="nofollow">see here</a>.</p>

<p>It sounded really familiar to a song that I've heard before in several other languages, but I can't find the name or the origin of this song. </p>

<p>What is the name of this song?</p>

In *Kuroshitsuji*, they often sing a song that ends on "my fair lady," [see here](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQv8Mq_H55s).

It sounded really familiar to a song that I've heard before in several other languages, but I can't find the name or the origin of this song.

What is the name of this song?

That song is the nursery rhyme "London Bridge is Falling Down," or simply "My Fair Lady."

This version that is sung seems to be a variation on [the one quoted](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Bridge_Is_Falling_Down#Lyrics) by [Iona and Peter Opie](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iona_Opie) in 1951.
