One fine day, or maybe a night
_____
Near a lake, I'd fallen asleep
_____
When suddenly, seeming to tear the sky apart
_____
Slowly, wings unfurled
_____
Slowly, I watched him circle
_____
Close to me, in a rustle of wings
As if fallen from the sky
_____
His eyes were ruby-colored
_____
And feathers the color of night
_____
On his brow blazing with a thousand fires
_____
With his beak he touched my cheek
_____
Into my hand he slid his neck
_____
That's when I recognized him
_____
Say bird, oh say, take me away
_____
Let's go back to the land of long ago
_____
Like before, in my childhood dreams
_____
To pick, trembling
_____
Stars, stars
_____
Like before, in my childhood dreams
_____
Like before, on a white cloud
_____
Like before, to light the sun
_____
The black eagle, in a rustle of wings
_____
Took flight to climb back to the sky
_____
One fine day, or maybe a night
_____
Near a lake, I'd fallen asleep
_____
When suddenly, seeming to tear the sky apart
_____
One fine day, or was it a night
_____
Near a lake, I'd fallen asleep
_____
When suddenly, seeming to tear the sky apart
_____
And coming from nowhere
_____
Bursting out of nowhere
_____
The black eagle appeared
_____
The black eagle appeared
