Two
caged birds sing
Of foreign lands and kings
We sit amazed at their outpourings
To learn of all that lies beyond ,
Far beyond our mental reckoning.
Of foreign lands and kings

To learn of all that lies beyond ,

Traveller
! Your camel rests awhile
At the door step , and you have your songbirds in that cage
Trilling notes that warm our hearts
Two sisters destined
To live within walls that will not break.
Traveller! Do take us with you too
We'd like to say , but no!
At the door step , and you have your songbirds in that cage
Trilling notes that warm our hearts
Two sisters destined
To live within walls that will not break.
Traveller! Do take us with you too
We'd like to say , but no!
The
cage is locked---
Not so your door , you say.
Not so your door , you say.
