Kookoorookoo! kookoorookoo!

Thomas Frederick Dunhill

"Kookoorookoo! kookoorookoo!"

Crows the cock before the morn;

"Kikirikee! kikirikee!"

Roses in the east are born.

"Kookoorookoo! kookoorookoo!"

Early birds begin their singing;

"Kikirikee! kikirikee!"

The day, the day, the day is springing.
