- Choucoune (Haitian Creole: Choukoun) is a 19th-century Haitian song composed by Michel Mauleart Monton with lyrics from a poem by Oswald Durand. It was rewritten with English lyrics in the 20th century as Yellow Bird.
The English rendering of Choucoune: Yellow Bird, first appeared on the album Calypso Holiday, a 1957 release by the Norman Luboff Choir, Norman Luboff having arranged the song in the calypso style that become popular in the English-speaking world in the mid-1950s. The lyrics for Yellow Bird, by Alan and Marilyn Bergman, have no connection with the narrative of the Durand poem-other than the poem features the words "ti zwazo" (little birds) in its refrain, and so the original Haitian song is sometimes called Ti Zwazo or Ti Zwezo. The song became a minor hit at #70 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the Mills Brothers in 1959. Its most successful incarnation came in the summer of 1961 when the Arthur Lyman Group reached #4 on the Hot 100 and #2 on the newly formed Easy Listening chart with their Hawaiian flavored instrumental version,[1] which bested a rival instrumental single release by Lawrence Welk (#61).
Yellow Bird has also been recorded by Keely Smith, Roger Whitaker, Roger Williams, Johnny Tillotson, The Brothers Four, and Paul Clayton. The song continues to be popularly associated with calypso and the Caribbean, and is often performed by steelpan bands-but some versions, such as Chris Isaak's from Baja Sessions, show a Hawaiian flavor.
Vivian Vance sung Yellow Bird on a two-part Here's Lucy episode, Lucy Goes Hawaiian, which aired February 15 and Feb. 22, 1971. Vance sang it in a high falsetto, with a calypso beat-dressed in yellow with feathers like a canary (including a long tail feather-and perched on a swing decorated as a nest. A long spoken-word midsection features Vance riffing on the types of male birds she'd like to hook up with. A clip of this version is on CZcams.
The 23 October 1989 broadcast of the CBS TV series Murphy Brown entitled Miles' Big Adventure ends with guest star Yeardley Smith serenading her unwilling object of desire Miles Silverberg with a snippet of Yellow Bird.
An African percussion band played the song in a Full House episode, The House Meets the House - Part 2 at Walt Disney World.
Steelpans (also known as steel drums or pans, and sometimes, collectively with other musicians, as a steel band or orchestra) is a musical instrument originating from The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. Steel pan musicians are called pannists.

Like a flower, we blossom for a moment and then wither. Like the shadow of a passing cloud, we quickly disappear. - Job 14:2

The most beautiful music 🎵 on earth 🌍!
Caribbean music at its best!nothing could be so romantic and relaxing other than hearing these wonderful tunes..on steel drums, of course..
I relish growing up in Trinidad❤
Man's triumph over adversity. This music was born of the good and Godly heart of those Afro Caribbeans who were slaves in the plantations.

It's not "take tenderness, then they fly away," it's "they tend the nest, then they fly away". It's a common error.
