where is the little bird
     that used to carry me
     over the river and the
     cane fields?
     I need his songs
     that tell of the love
     of the country girl
     and the coffee plantation
 
    He introduced me to
    the captain of the woodlands:
    it was the palm tree,
    sad and silent --
    and he told me the tale
    of his bitter travail,
    the farmers have been robbed
    of their souls and their freedom
 
    We went to listen to the warble
    of the river and the spring
    while the cricket sang
    on the hearth
    and he taught me to count
    the stars in the sky
    and to kiss a lovely country girl,
    the rapture of my dreams --
 
     little bird, little bird
     where are you singing?
