Nightingale in a dream
In folk tradition, a nightingale in a dream announces kind words, tender feelings and a joy that arrives quietly.
In folk songs the nightingale is the bird of people in love and of those who know how to listen. Its song in a dream is believed to bring good news, courtship or a reconciliation with someone you miss. If you did not see it but only heard it, happiness is said to come from an unexpected side. A silent nightingale means nothing bad, only that a quiet spell lies ahead in which you will have to be the first to speak.
