Wish I could transliterate what they sing. I have no way to understand the lyrics. I listen to their mesmerizing music every night. Some sing tut tut tut tut ........ Some others intone with high pitch cri i i i.......... Some others hum at a lower note mmmmmm.... The symphony is heavenly! My house is surrounded with flower bushes. They are homes for innumerable crickets. Come evening and they begin their all night music session. Some bushes stand just outside my verandah window. My bed lies at one end of the verandah , close to the bushes. Thus , I get the front bench ( should I say bed) privilege. Their singing sends me to the dream world almost every night. If you have never been to these musical evenings , drive to the countryside and stay in a hut in a village far away from the mad noises of the city.

I've fallen asleep many a night to the sound of crickets

We have crickets and cicadas singing during summer. I like to hear their singing.

@franxav I love the sound of crickets. When I lived in rural Africa the noise was symphonic at night.
