"Ring Around the Rosie" is a children's nursery rhyme believed by some to have origins related to the Black Death. The lyrics describe symptoms of the plague such as the ring-shaped rash ('rosie') and the flowers carried for the scent-mask ('pocket full of posies'). The connection, however, is debated among historians and scholars.

Most would argue that the nursery rhyme "Ring Around the Rosie" is based off the Bubonic plague. The first written copy of this song appeared in print in 1881, but this song has been sung since before 1790.
In some ways, yes. When the Bubonic Plague was part of the Black Death, people would dance around red roses singing the song "Ring Around the Rosie". The song has a dark history though. The "Ring around the Rosie part meant the black part around the red lumps called buboes. the "Ashes, ashes" part represented the infected, dead bodies being burnt. Finally, the "We all fall down" part represented everyone dying. Dark Right?
