Q R Quiet/Rhino
Children's Song Lyrics and Sound Clip
African Alphabet

Verse1
“Q” is for quiet,
The quiet of the night.
When all you hear are crickets,
In the moonlight.
“Q” is for quiet,
When everyone’s asleep.
And you can’t hear a sound,
Not the tiniest little peep!

Chorus
Quiet, the quiet, the quiet of the night. (Shhhh)
Quiet, the quiet, the quiet of the night. (Shhhh)
Quiet, the quiet, the quiet of the night. (Shhhh)
Quiet, the quiet, the quiet of the night. (Shhhh)

Verse 2
“R” is for rhinoceros,
He can’t see very well.
But one thing that is really good,
Is his sense of smell.
“R” is for rhinoceros,
His body is robust.
He likes to eat plants and grass,
And rolling in the dust!

Chorus
“R” is, “R” is for rhinoceros (Rhino!)
“R” is, “R” is for rhinoceros (Rhino!)
“R” is, “R” is for rhinoceros (Rhino!)
“R” is, “R” is for rhinoceros (Rhino!)

Quiet, the quiet, the quiet of the night. (Shhhh)
Quiet, the quiet, the quiet of the night. (Shhhh)
“R” is, “R” is for rhinoceros (Rhino!)
“R” is, “R” is for rhinoceros!
