Day or night cuckoo?
And no, I'm not crazy. There is only a proverb in our language: "The cuckoo of the night will nibble on the day".
This proverb has an allegorical meaning. In it, the daytime cuckoo is a symbol of the man's mother. The night cuckoo is a man's wife. The meaning of this phrase is as follows: the woman will always stand up for herself, no matter what the cost, and the man will have to fulfill her request.
"At the same time, the interests of the mother, who was with her son all the time when he grew up and raised him, must not be taken into account.
