The hokey cokey in Irish for children. No audio in Irish is available but you can use the karaoke version and ignore the English. This is a participation dance with a distinctive accompanying tune and lyric structure. It originates in a British folk dance, with variants attested as early as 1826. The song and accompanying dance peaked in popularity as a music hall song and novelty dance in the mid-1940s in Britain and Ireland.
Cuir do lámh chlé isteach Cuir do lámh chlé amach Amach, isteach, amach, Agus cas go cúramach. Déan an hócaí, cócaí Agus cas mar seo Sin mar atá an scéal
Ó, ó hócaí cócaí Ó, ó hocaí cócaí Ó, ó hócaí cócaí Glún glún, lámh, lámh Rah, rah, rah

Put your left hand in Put your left hand out Out, in, out And turn carefully Do the hokey cokey And turn like this That's how the story goes
Whoa-oh, hokey cokey Whoa-oh, hokey cokey Whoa-oh, hokey cokey Knee knee, hand, hand Rah, rah, rah
