Cuckoo bird so smart and sleek calling o'er the field
airwaves to thy recurrent call
so favorably yield
Ferrying thy call so far
from tree to distant vales
The goal to furnish listeners ears
Cordially prevails
Summer days are unfulfilled
without thy covert cry
I hear the call but see no caller
however hard I try
Searching tree and thicket hedge
And smoking chimney pot
I've never caught a glimpse of thee
I hear but see thee not
