Would be nice to make this with English subtitles 😅...i am from Hyderabad and would love to understand the poem...it sounds so sweet.Bengali is magical.
The pet bird was in a golden cage, The wild bird in the woods. And yet one day they met each other, How strange are Lord God's moods. The wild bird said, "O cage-bird, come Fly to the woods with me." The pet bird said, "Wild bird, my friend, We can live here happily." The wild bird said, "No no! I'll hate life inside a jail." The pet bird said, "Dear me! If I try to go out, I'll fail." The wild bird sang many songs from the woods Sitting outside the cage, The pet bird chirped some words memorized In a different language. The wild bird said, "O cage-bird, come, I'll teach you a few wild songs." The pet bird said, "Why don't you learn Cage tunes, and sing along." The wild bird said, "No no! I don't sing songs that are taught." The pet bird said, "Dear me! Your wild songs I know not." The wild bird said, "The sky's deep blue, It bounds you nowhere, ever." The pet bird said, "This cage is nice, How cosy is its cover." The wild bird said, "Among the clouds You can let yourself be free." The pet bird said, "In your own little home Your heart will fill with glee." The wild bird said, "No no! In a cage I can't fly!" The pet bird said, "Dear me! There's no perch in the sky." Thus the two birds felt a deep love, Yet could not be together. Across the rails they touched their beaks, And sadly viewed each other. None could follow the other's words, Or voice own feelings clearly. They flapped their wings, and told each other, "Please, come closer to me." The wild bird said, "No no! What if they shut the cage door?" The pet bird said, "Dear me! I can't fly anymore."
