    The research has comparatively analyzed the characteristics of lyric genres such as counting-out rhymes, teases and children's songs of Azerbaijan and English children's folklore. Although there are differences between the lyrical types of Azerbaijani and English folklore, there are also similarities in form and content. In this regard, the origin of lyric genres of Azerbaijani and English children’s folklore has been investigated and comparative typological features have been determined. In the article, it was concluded that the comparative analysis of Azerbaijan and English folklore genres such as counting-out rhymes, teases and children's songs is related to the closeness of human thought and its relation to reality. The analogy between Azerbaijan and English folklore is related to the similar lifestyle of two people, that is, the similarities of people's historical development, the ancient historical and cultural relationships- the prehistoric mythological thinking of both nations and the same psychological acts of children. Similarities and differences were also discovered during the comparison of children's folklore texts. Parallels in connection with living conditions are clearly observed in many children’s folklore genres, such as counting-out rhymes, teases and game songs.
