BLUEBIRD

BLUEBIRD IN A GOLDEN CAGE
SINGING SONGS IN GOLDEN TONES
ALL ABOUT A NICER AGE
WARM SHE WAS AND SINGING THERE
UNDER BANYAN TREE

FOOD AND WINE ARE FREELY GIVEN THERE
LIFE IS GLORIFYING LIFE
IN THE SOFTLY SCENTED AIR
THOUGHT AND ACTION SEEM TO BE COMBINED
SO THE BLUEBIRD SINGS

WORD AND DEED AND VISION ARE NOT SEPERATED THERE
BLUEBIRD IN YOUR GOLDEN CAGE
CAN YOU TELL ME WHERE PARADISE HAS GONE

BLUEBIRD IN A GOLDEN CAGE
LOOKING OUT ACROSS THE SNOWY PLAIN
IT IS WARM BESIDE THE FIREPLACE
IT IS COLD OUTSIDE THE WINDOW PANE
SO THE BLUEBIRD SINGS

ALL THE NOTES AND TONES SHE SINGS ARE FASHIONED LONG AGO
AND THE BLUEBIRDíS SONG REMAINS
FREE OF ANY MEMORY
FREE OF ANY PAIN
