Gushoshin the red-capped bird thing
had a very shiny beak.
And if you ever saw him,
you wouldn't even say its bleak.

All of the other bird things
used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Gushoshin
play in any birdy games.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Tsuzuki came to say:
"Gushoshin with your beak so bright,
won't you help me out tonight?"

Then all the bird things loved him
as they shouted out with glee:
" Gushoshin the red-capped bird thing,
you'll go down in the library!"
