Footloose: Giving further weighty thought to this inherent cuckooness of the koel, I find that our man Sameer-the-songwriter was more wised-up on the matter of bird families than we knew! See what he writes: Koyal si teri boli, cuckoo, cuckoo… cuckoo, cuckoo…
God Satal! Kaiku tho bhi zikr kare yaaron! Ab une muh bandich nai rakhraa. You know Floozie? That darned bird did not shut-up all night! Had to sleep with doodie in my ears and a pillow and an arm over that. Incessant I tell you, we’ve heard nothing like that before. Also, Lethal-Sheetal got it wrong. She has not given you the full measure if the SameerMan’s genius. Never let such an important song be thus misquoted. I give you the true version… Koyal si teri boli, hmmm hmm Cukoo Cukoo Cukookoo Cukoo Cukoo..

Lovely.
Thank you, ladies.
Ashwini, we're lacking the hawk-cuckoo in this area but the plaintive does double duty.
now i miss the koyal on my gulmohar.
how the koyal is not the same as the cuckoo, i'll never understand.
Foozles, paapa, you're missing just about everything, so what's one more :)
And the koel is a cuckoo, so you're right!
Waah Waah, o Mallika-e-minimalism!!
Deewaan saab, tasleem, shukriya!
