A BIRD IN THE CAGE


A BIRD IN THE CAGE

I am a little Parrot

With green feathers in the wings

A red rose beak and small eyes

A black ring like necklace at my nek

A very beautiful bars jointed cage

Nice different foods

Mangoes, Tomatoes, Green Chilies

Chicken, fish, mutton beef

All are given with love and reef

Different persons love and tweet

I cannot come out of cage

To fly in the sky, to go to gardens,

For sitting on the trees

For eating fresh fruits, vegetables,

I am fade up of my prison life

People see and love me in the cage,

No one opens the door

Door for my liberty

One day I will die

All will be grieved

Not for my life loss

But for their prisoner died

Is there any one

Who make a law for us Birds and Animals

To keep us in the cage for a fixed period

Three to six months or a year

It is our right to be free of fear

To fly in the sky, on the trees, in the gardens

Oh people think of your life

If it is in the cage for life time

Till your death

Same is the situation

You can love the birds and animals

With implementing the natural laws

And can save the birds and faws

Loving me in the cage

Cuts my innocent age

Dredging to die

Leave me I want to fly

Very very high with my wings and feathers

I am a little Parrot

With green feathers in the wings

A red rose beak and small eyes

A black ring-like necklace on my neck

A very beautiful bar jointed cage

Nice different foods

Mangoes, tomatoes, Green Chilies

Chicken, fish, mutton beef

All is given with love and relief.

Different people love and tweet

I cannot come out of the cage.

To fly in the sky, to go to gardens,

For sitting on the trees

For eating fresh fruits and vegetables,

I am fading out of my prison life.

People see and love me in the cage,

No one opens the door.

Door for my liberty

One day I will die

All will be grieved

Not for my life loss

But because their prisoner died

Is there anyone 

Who makes a law for us birds and animals?

To keep us in the cage for a fixed period

Three to six months or a year

It is our right to be free of fear.

To fly in the sky, on the trees, in the gardens

Oh, people think of your life.

If it is in a cage for lifetime

Till your death

The same is the situation

You can love birds and animals

With implementing the natural laws

And can save birds and caws

Loving me in the cage

Cuts my innocent age

Dredging to die

Leave me. I want to fly

Very very high with my wings and feathers

to the nests in the trees

peaks of mountains

Rivers and fountains

even in clouds, singing my words loud

A message of peace for everyone

live and let live with ton
