I know what the caged bird feels alas!
When the sun is bright on the upland slopes
When the wind stirs soft through the springing grass

When the first bird sings and the first bud opes
And the faint perfume from it’s chalice steals-
I know what the caged bird feels!

Around it is where he would love to prance

And fell on the ground
And now he’s not even able to dance
