Lovely how we met each other,
Once in a clear summer night,
Our hearts sang merry songs

As our souls come dancing by,
There stood in golden cages locked,
The tame birds by the riverside

They'll never know the lovely dance,
Can never feel the touch of night,
For tame birds sing a song
Of freedom while the wild birds fly

For tame birds sing a song
Of freedom while the wild birds fly

Though their song was beautiful,
Full of dreams about a flight,
They'd never dare to join our dancing
Looked at us not understanding,
Why our sun could shine more bright

And our wildness makes them
Full of bright,
For tame birds sing a song
Of freedom while the wild birds fly

No limits for our love were set,
We danced and sang to mornings light
They looked at us not understanding,
Why our sun could shine more bright

For tame birds sing a song
Of freedom while the wild birds fly

Happily they bear their fate,
Can't miss what they never had
They don't know about the other world

Where we dwell,
Sing and dance together
But we remain wild birds forever,
Until we fail, until we're dead!
