A bird is born to fly
A bird belongs to the sky
A bird has also dreams
A bird loves flowers and streams
A bird has gardens and valleys under its wings
A bird loves wild tulips and limpid springs
A bird loves pleasant parks and soft breezes
A bird loves pretty blossoms and tall trees
A bird says, Please do not put me in a cage
Wherein I am confined
Please be kind
Look!
What if your hands and legs were tied?
What if nobody cared even when you cried?
Set me free, please . . . set me free
I want to fly in the vast blue sky
In your cage I will die out of sorrow
In your cage
I have no present
And no tomorrow
