This is what they call a leading question. Most people would say Ring a ring of roses but the rhyme existed long after the black death 'died' out and just refers to people dying from sneezing, which isn't linked to the black death at all.

What children's nursery rhyme is based on the black death?

Why does the black death have a song?

You are probably asking about the song and nursery rhyme, "Ring a Ring o' Roses," which is often said to have come into being because of the Black Death. In fact, this piece was first published in 1881, and the association with the Black Death was not made in print before World War II. So the association would appear to be a myth that survives because it can easily be believed. There is a link to the plague interpretation of an article on the nursery rhyme below.
