"Icumen" - in the Wessex dialect of Middle English (known from the round "Sumer Is Icumen In") - meaning something like "come in" (I don't know where the i- in icumen has come from, - maybe the word is a corruption of "in" + the participle of "to come", cfr. Faroese "innkomin").
"Sumer is icumen in, Lhude sing cuccu! Groweþ sed and bloweþ med And springþ þe wde nu, Sing cuccu! Awe bleteþ after lomb, Lhouþ after calue cu. Bulluc sterteþ, bucke uerteþ, Murie sing cuccu! Cuccu, cuccu, wel singes þu cuccu; Ne swik þu nauer nu. Pes: Sing cuccu nu. Sing cuccu. Sing cuccu. Sing cuccu nu!" I'm slowly beginning to see the point of this game...
