The given 3 simultaneous alphametic equations solve as:
S. O. R. D. A. M F. I. L
1. 2  3  4   5  6  7  8 9
Then, we must have:
74925y 5'672u3 => Melody D'amour

MELODY D'AMOUR, meaning "melody of love", is the title of an English language song which was first recorded in 1957 by Ames Brothers.
It first reached the Billboard Magazine chart on October 7, 1957.
On the Disk Jockey chart it reached at #5, on the Best seller chart at #12; and on the composite chart of top 100 songs, it reached #12.

The first four lines of this song run as:

"Melody d'amour, take this song to my lover
Shoo shoo little bird, go and find my love
Melody d'amour, serenade at my window
Shoo-shoo little bird, sing my song of love"

Accordingly, the first word that repeats itself is "shoo".

TRIVIA
-> This song was originally adapted from a popular French West Indies folk tune "Maladie d'Amour" (french for "love sickness"). The original French version was first recorded by Leona Gabriel and it was later popularised in the arrangement by Henri Salvador published in 1949. 
Melody D'amour is the English language version of this song.

-> Dean Martin recorded the English version of the song as "Cha Cha Cha d'Amour" in 1962. Interestingly, most of the lyrics are identical, including the 2nd and 4th line.
