Sweet Lonely Bird

Sweet lonely bird
Surviving earthquake and thunderstorm
How come you hang on, my friend,
When all the trees are gone.

Where did you hide your head?
When the rains were angry.
Where did you find your daily bread?
When the sun showed its fury.

Did your heart miss a beat?
Or you threw caution to the wind.
Did your soul feel the heat
Of rising stones, as they grind?

Sweet lonely Bird
Surviving earthquake and thunderstorm
Hang on my dear friend
Even when all the Trees are gone.
