| The Birds |
|---|
| From out of a wood did a cuckoo fly |
| Cuckoo |
| He came to a manger with joyful cry |
| Cuckoo |
| He hopped, he curtsied, 'round he flew |
| And loud his jubilation grew |
| Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo |
| A pigeon flew over to Galilee |
| Vrer-croo |
| He strutted and cooed and was full of glee |
| Vrer-croo |
| And showed with jewelled wings unfurled |
| His joy that Christ was in the world |
| Vrer-croo, vrer-croo, vrer-croo |
| A dove settled down upon Nazareth |
| Tsu-croo |
| And tenderly chanted with all his breath |
| Tsu-croo |
| «O you,» he cooed |
| «So good and true |
| My beauty do I give to you!» |
| Tsu-croo, tsu-croo-, tsu-croo |
