“Frère Jacques” is one of the most famous children’s songs (comptines) and has been established as a sleeping song because of its lyrics. Frère Jacques (Brother Jacob), was probably a real person, a 17th-century monk.
The monk should wake up and sound the bells for the “matines” (monastic services), but, obviously, he oversleeps and the song calls him to wake up.
