老歌好听点评：《夏天来了》是有记录的最早的流行歌曲。旋律节拍简单原始，听来像劳动号子，唱的却是初夏美好的田园生活。依稀地，已经能够听出苏格兰民歌简洁而热情有力的特点了。

Modern English：
Summer has arrived,
Sing loudly, cuckoo!
The seed is growing
And the meadow is blooming,
And the wood is coming into leaf now,
Sing, cuckoo!
The ewe is bleating after her lamb,
The cow is lowing after her calf;
The bullock is prancing,
The billy-goat farting,
Sing merrily, cuckoo!
Cuckoo, cuckoo,
You sing well, cuckoo,
Never stop now.
Sing, cuckoo, now; sing, cuckoo;
Sing, cuckoo; sing, cuckoo, now!
