Sumer Is Icumen In, Part 3

Just a few days remain in the month, but denizens of the June Random Thread will be singing "Koko" to the bitter end. (To find out why, see parts One and Two.)

Just a few days remain in the month, but denizens of the June Random Thread will be singing “Koko” to the bitter end. (To find out why, see parts One and Two.)


Sumer Is Icumen In, Part 2

The June Random Thread continues after a typically ebullient Part 1. The graphic continues unchanged as well, because the artist is on the road, but we can provide slightly updated lyrics:

Svmer is icumen in,
Lhude sing Kokko!
Sprouteth grass and outeth class
And Musers homeward go,
Sing Kokko!


Sumer Is Icumen In, Part 1

If the onset of summer makes you feel giddy or even a little crazy, the June Random Thread offers you a chance to join along in this fine old Middle English song:

Svmer is icumen in,
Lhude sing cuccu!
Groweþ sed and bloweþ med
And springþ þe wde nu,
Sing cuccu!

Cuccu, cuccu, wel singes þu, cuccu;
Ne swik þu nauer nu.
Sing cuccu nu. Sing cuccu.
Sing cuccu. Sing cuccu nu!

In modern English: “Summer has come in / Loudly sing, Cuckoo! / The seed grows and the meadow blooms / And the wood springs anew, / Sing, Cuckoo!

“Cuckoo, cuckoo, well you sing, cuckoo; / Don’t you ever stop now, / Sing cuckoo now. / Sing, Cuckoo. / Sing Cuckoo. Sing cuckoo now!”
