Translation
The Bird
The prison is not my adopted procedure
And there is not in it my joy
And I am not pleased caged
And it is from gold
The forest of my lord is my goal
And living in it is my quest
My food in it is good
And my drink in it is refreshing
I go in it for a drink
From sweet spring water
I sing in it freely
And the prison is not my adopted procedure
