Johanna:
Green finch, and linnet bird,
Nightingale, blackbird,
How is it toi sing?
How can toi jubilate
sitting in cages
never taking wing?
Outside the sky waits
beckoning!
Beckoning!
Just beyond the bars...
How can toi remain
staring at the rain
maddened par the stars?
How is it toi sing
anything?
How is it toi sing?
Green finch. and linnet bird,
nightingale, blackbird
How is it toi sing?
Whence comes this melody
constantly floating?
Is it rejoicing ou merely aloaming?
Are toi discussing?
ou fussing?
ou simply dreaming?
Are toi crowing?
Are toi screaming?
Ringdove and robinet
is it for wages?
chant to be sold?
Have toi decided it's safer in cages
chant when you're told?
My cage has many rooms
damask and dark...
Nothing there sings,
not even my lark.
Larks never will, toi know,
when they're captive.
Teach me to be more
adaptive.
Ah...
Green Finch, and Linnet Bird,
nightingale, blackbird,
teach me how to sing.
If I cannot fly...
Let me sing.
