THE PUZZLE BIRD

******************************************************

Inside the Megisti bright Puzzle Museum,

a legend was born, cousin of the blackbirds.

 

A unique species, on a remote island,

that went from endemic to migragratotory (ah, I can’t say it).

 

Coo-Coo-Kooee! Coo-Coo-Kooee!

 

The Puzzle Bird flies,

of all the little birds, it’s the sweetest!

 

Coo-Coo-Kooee! Coo-Coo-Kooee!

 

The Puzzle Bird flies,

high in the little mountains, plays well hide-and-seek.

 

Kooee! Kooee!

 

It flutters with joy, to spread knowledge,

oh this time, what has it come up with?

 

It lays little eggs, that are oval-shaped,

it comes with the little ones, to our familiar Festival!

 

Angooee!

Coo-Coo-Kooee! Coo-Coo-Kooee!

 

The Puzzle Bird flies,

smart, brave, like Tom Thumb!

 

Coo-Coo-Kooee! Coo-Coo-Kooee!

 

The Puzzle Bird flies,

high in the little mountains, plays well hide-and-seek.

 

A person with a pure soul will manage to see it,

like the rare phenomenon of an asteroid.

 

And if travelers happen to see it one day,

with it in joy, everyone will chirp along!

 

Coo-Coo-Kooee! Coo-Coo-Kooee!

 

The Puzzle Bird flies,

of all the little birds, it’s the sweetest!

 

Cuckoo-Cooee! Cuckoo-Cooee!

 

The Puzzle Bird flies,

high over the little mountains, plays well hide-and-seek.

 

But what exactly is this puzzle-bird?

 

It is something mythical, secret, knowledgeable, generous, elfin,

poetic, insular, hypnotic, physic-mathematical…

 

that can feel you, save you, challenge you, lift you up, meet you,

stir you, enlighten you, confirm you…!

 

A unique species, on a remote island,

that went from endemic to migratory! (oh, I said it!)

 

And if a few hikers manage to see it,

with joy, they will all sing along with it…

 

Cuckoo-Cooee! Cuckoo-Cooee!

 

It flies-it flies… the Puzzle Bird flies!

Cuckoo-Cooee! Cuckoo-Cooee!

 

The Puzzle-Bird flies,

high over the little mountains, plays well hide-and-seek.

 

Cooee! Cooee!
