  Txori bat ote, perpaus txikiaren arima oraino osagabea ote, lamina bat ote, izaki ikusezin eta adiakari hori, zeinaren pleinua segidan errepikatzen baitzuen pianoak samurki?
  Was it a bird, was it the soul, as yet not fully formed, of the little phrase, was it a fairy—that being invisibly lamenting, whose plaint the piano heard and tenderly repeated?
Eurasian scops owl (Otus scops)

  Adiakaria izenekoa ere askotan aipatu ohi da, eta hontzaren edo urubiaren antzeko animalia bat dela uste da.
  The so-called weeper is often mentioned too, and it is thought to be an animal similar to barn owls or wood owls.
