Huh, IrCOd forgotten there were English words to -2 Fr|?re Jacques -+.
Yes, as there are translations in many other languages.
None of them start with 'are you sleeping?'. Your erratic source has the third and fourth lines transposed with the first two lines. You can put
that down to the fact that the clucking Hen is a bit of a ding-dong
himself. (Hint, the song is called "Fr|?re Jacques".)

The melody has-a-a (4 notes, 3 notes)-a (4 4 3 (Qrest) 3 (Qrest))-a so it seems more natural as i have it (above).

The monks and friars had to get up and pray for the world. If they
didn't do it properly and regularly, then God might dismiss us all.
Get up, ring the bells, gather in morning prayers, pray.
And then the poor peasants could till the fields in safety; safe from
some thunderbolt come hurtling down from heaven onto them.

There are many children's rhymes that have a very serious provenance.
They are fundamentally satire.
The Grand Old Duke of York.
Ring a ring a roses.
Marlborough s'en va-t-en guerre.
When you play with these, you take them away from their historical
meaning, and transmute them into something local. And, to me, that just depletes them of their juice.

London's burning, London's burning.
Fetch the engines, fetch the engines.
Fire fire, Fire Fire!
Pour on water, pour on water.
How does that resonate in your experience? What images does it conjure
up for you? What feelings?
I hope it's more than just sitting around in some junior school hall,
kids singing a nice tune.
If that's how you envisage it, then stop cross-posting to our Latin NG.
We look deeper than that.
