Sing Cucu! Awe bleateth after lambe Lowth after calve cu Bullock starteth, bucke varteth Myrie sing Cucu. Cucu, cucu, Well singes thu Cucu, ne swik thi naver nu. Translation: Summer has arrived, sing loudly, cuckoo! The seed is sprouting and the meadow is blooming, and the wood is coming into leaf now, Sing, cuckoo! The ewe is bleating after her lamb, the cow is lowing after her calf; The bullock is starting, the billy-goat farting, Sing merrily, cuckoo! Cuckoo, cuckoo, You sing well, cuckoo, do not ever stop now!
