A bit early I know .. but in celebration of tomorrow's warm but wet weather
Sumer is icumen in
Sumer is icumen in
Lhude sing cuccu!
Groweth sed and bloweth med
And springeth the wrd nu,
Sing cuccu!
Awe bletheth after lamb,
Lhouth after calve cu.
Bulloc sterteth, bucke verteth,
Murie sing cuccu!
Cuccu, cuccu, wel singes thu, cuccu;
Ne swikthu naver nu,
Sing cuccu nu. Sing cuccu.
Sing cuccu. Sing cuccu nu!
Translation:
Summer is a-coming-in,
Loud sing Cuckoo!
Seeds grow and meadows bloom
And the forest springs anew,
Sing Cuckoo!
Ewes bleat after lambs,
Cows lowe after the calves,
Bullocks jump, bucks fart,
Merrily sing Cuckoo!
Cuckoo, cuckoo, well you sing, cuckoo;
Nor cease you ever now,
Sing cuckoo now. Sing cuckoo.
Sing cuckoo. Sing cuckoo now!
