The Bird in a cage

Poem (The bird in a cage) Listen to my story of how I forgot The days of freedom and nights I would fly with open wings And fellow birds through woods in sprite Hither and thither, fluttering Over gardens, mountain and trees And listening to sweet songs Of nearby birds, flying bees Unfortunately those cruel trapped me And wrapped my desires And put me in prison A cage of woods and wires Currently I miss sweet voices Of my fellow birds That hurt me too How can I express it in words? Like prisoner my tears Flow down as dew And lost the freedom Of nest and sky blue How can I forget fruits? And eating sunflowers seeds And bringing cucumber, melon, Wheat and grains for my breeds In thousand pieces my heart is broken By listening to their words Compare my cries, sighs, And tears with free fellow birds Oh my GOD takes pity on me And give me freedom from this cage Otherwise I may die in these hard, Sharp wires in this age
