letra de little yellow bird - angela lansbury

Loading...

(verse 1)
the snow was very plentiful
and clouds were very few
when a weather-beaten sparrow
through a mansion window flew
her eye fell on a golden cage
a sweet love song she heard
sung by a pet canary there
a handsome yellow bird
he said to her, “miss sparrow
i’ve been struck by cupid’s arrow
would you share my cage with me?”
she looked up at his castle
with its ribbon and its tassel
and in plaintive tones said she:

(chorus 1)
“good-byе, little yellow bird
i’d rather bravе the cold
on a leafless tree
than a prisoner be
in a cage of gold.”

(verse 2)
the spoiled and petted yellow bird
could scarce believe it true
that a common sparrow should refuse
a bird with blood so blue
he told her the advantages
of riches and of gold
she answered that her liberties
for gold could not be sold
she said “i must be going.”
but he cried “no, no, its snowing
and the wintry winds do blow
stay with me, my little dearie
for without you ‘twould be dreary.”
but she only sighed “ah, no.”
(chorus 2)
“good-bye, little yellow bird
i’d gladly mate with you –
i love you, little yellow bird
but i love my freedom, too
so good-bye, little yellow bird
i’d rather brave the cold
on a leafless tree
than a prisoner be
in a cage of gold.”
