Текст песни: Song the Songbird Sings + перевод

It was another Friday morning

I was among the olive trees

Out looking for birds to catch

My father, his friends and me

I had my string and net

And a nimble eye

There beside the farmers' fields

Where the songbirds fly

When you’re catching birds

The world disappears

And a thousand songs of autumn

Are all that fills your ears

They sing their songs so brightly

At the dawning of the day

They fly back and forth over the fence

Where we must stay away

You can see the birds beneath the clouds

Watch them spread their wings

You can listen to the wind

And the song the songbird sings

It’s so good to come here

So far from all the sound

Of all the shooting and the shouting

And the tanks upon the ground

I just wish I could live here

Within this olive grove

Just me, my friends and family

And a small wood-burning stove

Last week I caught three sparrows

It was quite a day

Now I’m bound for glory

That’s what they say

I hear them talk about me

Shedding tears upon a sack

Inside there lies a child

With four bullets in his back
