- In English, The Little Cuckoo. The tune and first verse of this song were collected in Utica, New York, USA, in 1903 from a woman who had learned it from her Welsh mother. First published in "Alawon y Celt", a collection edited by Robert Bryan, who also added the second and third verses, in which the singer sends her true love a message, a theme often associated with songs about birds.
