Bird Song

Next time you are outside, stop
and listen
listen to the birds
hear their song
listen to the voice
Every bird has a song
Every song has its bird
Do not ignore them but instead
listen, listen to their story
They are singing for you
you are their audience
and they sing for you to hear
they sing for all to hear
They are not concerned with politics
neither corruption nor greed
but instead they rejoice
These birds are not caged, but free,
Free birds
they sing because they are happy
they are happy because they are free
They sit in their trees, free from oppression so why wouldn't they sing
I wish I were a free bird
A bird who sings
Next time you are outside listen
Listen to the song of the free bird
Listen to the story of the free bird
