Fly To the Land of Freedom
A little birdie came chirping to my courtyard,
vibrant its wings were,
tangerine, green and white,
a golden hue all over,
an impeccable hymn it sang.
I looked at her fervently,
her hymn and charisma had struck a chord.
Felt she was mine and had come to see me,
from a distant land of absolute freedom,
San’s shame and fear.
Where my heart pined to go!
She chirped, hopped, and fluttered her dazzling wings,
presumably she desired to show how thrilled she too was!
My heart sang aloud,
Tears flooded my eyes.
Yes, thrilled I too am to see such an enchanting beauty
and hear your mellifluous song.
Giving the woman in me a new reason to dream,
of the land,
my heart yearns to go!
Oh! enchanting little visitor you came for me I know.
And my heart says little birdie you are my even more.
Wish you lead me to that distant land,
of absolute freedom sans shame and fear!
