"'''Kagome Kagome'''" (かごめかごめ, or {{linktext|籠目籠目}}) is a [[List of traditional Japanese games#Children's games|Japanese children's game]] and the song (''[[Warabe uta]]'') associated with it. One player is chosen as the ''[[Oni]]'' (literally [[demon]] or [[ogre]], but similar to the concept of "it" in [[tag (game)|tag]]) and sits blindfolded (or with their eyes covered). The other children join hands and walk in circles around the ''Oni'' while chanting the song for the game. When the song stops, the ''Oni'' tries to name the person standing directly behind them.
The song is a subject of much interest because of its cryptic lyrics which vary from region to region
