Bard Judith Lyr Req: im looking for a song - oak tree/coo coo (18) RE: Lyr Req: im looking for a song - oak tree/coo 15 Oct 05


Aaaaannnnd... I found it!

This rather chunky piano rendition is the same melody as the one I know for "Peter's Fountain" which I quoted in full above. So - have I helped at all here? Or just given the original questor more to follow up? :)

Malcolm: I'd be interested to hear the tune for your round. It very much scans like yet another 'oldie from my mother', and yes, this too is a round....

Deep in the shady thicket
The cuckoo singeth clear
Awaken, little shepherd,
The cuckoo singeth clear.

Cuckoo, cuckoo, the cuckoo singeth clear!
Cuckoo, cuckoo, the cuckoo singeth clear!

so re, so re, so fa mi fa so mi
so re, so re, so fa mi fa so mi
