Sing, cuccu, nu! Sing, cuccu!
 Sing, cuccu! Sing, cuccu, nu!
 Sumer is icumen in;
 Lhud{.e} sing, cuccu!
 Groweth sed, and bloweth med,
 And springth the wud{.e} nu.
 Sing, cuccu!

 Aw{.e} bleteth after lomb,
 Lhouth after calv{.e} cu;
 Bulluc sterteth, buck{.e} verteth;
 Muri{.e} sing, cuccu!

 Cuccu! cuccu!
 Wel sing{.e}s thu, cuccu;
 Ne swik thu naver nu.
