Cuckoo Song

by Anonymous (1500-1599)

Sumer is icumen in,   Lhude sing cuccu! Groweth sed, and bloweth med,   And springth the wude nu—           Sing cuccu! Awe bleteth after lomb,   Lhouth after calve cu; Bulluc sterteth, bucke verteth,   Murie sing cuccu! Cuccu, cuccu, well singes thu, cuccu:   Ne swike thu naver nu; Sing cuccu, nu, sing cuccu,   Sing cuccu, sing cuccu, nu!
