Singing Bird
Once upon a time, there was a little bird
Who liked to sing
But one day a man appeared
Very, very bad man
And caught the little bird
Who liked to sing
Never sang again
Never flew again
Bird in the cage
He was sad
But one day a man appeared
Very, very good man
And released the little bird
Who liked to sing
From the cage came out
From sadness came out
Fly fly little bird
That God released you
Sing little bird
Praise your lord
Sing and praise little bird
That God released you
And now the little bird
You are free to fly
Not just to fly
But also to sing!
Sing little bird
Praise your lord
Sing and fly little bird
That God released you
Sing my brothers
Praise your lord
Sing and praise my brothers
May God release us!
That God released us
Fly and sing little bird
In the presence of the lord
Fly and sing little bird
That the lord has already released you
