| Song Lyrics: |
Original Middle English:
Sing, cuccu, nu. Sing, cuccu.
Sing, cuccu, nu. Sing, cuccu.
Sumer is i-cumin in,
Lhude sing, cuccu!
Groweth sed and bloweth med
And springth the wude nu.
Sing, cuccu!
Awe bleteth after lamb,
Lhouth after calve cu,
Bulluc sterteth, bucke verteth,
Murie sing, cuccu!
Cuccu, cuccu,
Wel singes thu, cuccu.
Ne swik thu naver nu!
Sing, cuccu, nu. Sing, cuccu.
****************************************
Modern English translation:
Sing, cuckoo, now! Sing, cuckoo!
Sing, cuckoo, now! Sing, cuckoo!
Summer is a-comin' in,
Loudly sing, cuckoo!
Grows the seed and meadow blooms
And springs the wood anew.
Sing, cuckoo!
The ewe, she bleats after the lamb,
The cow lows for her calf.
The bullock stirs, the buck farts,
Merrily sing, cuckoo!
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
Sing you well, cuckoo!
Don't you ever stop, now.
Sing, cuckoo, now! Sing, cuckoo!
