There isn’t a song that anyone sings That’s as sad as the song of a bird without wings. The song of a bird confined to a cage, The song of a bird who has felt human rage. The song of a bird that’s ignored night and day, No sign of good food, no toys, and no play. Hear that pain as this lonely bird sings, That is the song of a bird without wings.
The bird that is ill, knowing no-one will care The bird who’s life is loveless and bare. The bird, who in fear has panicked and bit And therefore been screamed at, sworn at and hit. These are the birds who sing their own song, Quietly, sadly, but all day long. If you care, you will hear what this lonely bird sings, This is the song of a bird without wings.
But sometimes, along comes a person cares, Then the bird hears the song that the ‘RESCUER’ shares! And the bird stops to listen, and tilts it’s sweet head, As it hears new sweet words that it’s never heard said. Can you sing to these birds? Help them learn a new song? Can you show them their pain will not last all life long? Oh PLEASE be the person who lovingly sings, And gives flight to a bird, A bird without wings.
