Subject: grotesque newbie question about echoing escape sequences

I want to manually set the title of my Cygwin to the string "foobar" by
directly typing

	echo magic-incantation

at the command line.  I understand that "magic-incantation" bears some
relationship to the magic incantation 

	<ESC>]2;foobar^G

but I can't figure out the right way to say it.   Help?
