Birds Are Flying Away

The sun rises and sets, 
The moon rises and sets,

Birds are flying over the seas, rivers and mountains
Birds are flying over disturbances and disappointments

Under complete darkness, 
Under excessive brightness, 

Birds don’t count how many days they are flying
Birds don’t care how many birds are flying together

With their tiny wings 
With all their strength

Flying on rainy days, windy days and in scorching heat, 
No matter how happy, sad, or fearful they feel.
