The cuckoo she's a pretty bird, she sings as she flies She bringeth us good tidings, she telleth us no lies She sucketh white flowers to keep her voice clear And everytime she singeth “cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo” Then the springtime draweth near The cuckoo she's a pretty bird, no other is as she She flits across the meadow and sings from every tree She loves the summеr sunshine, she hates the wind and rain And everytime she singeth “cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo” Then the springtime comes again
