FOOTPRINT OF FISH
Footprint of fish Foggy but shinny and breezes at dawn Busy like termites to bulid kingdom That built up as a pinch of sand The phases of time, hope and trust .

You are not less than the wild stranger, Sit in the midst of still nature as pond water. Count breezing and dawning sailed away, Parted beyond uncounted mile way. You are trying to hold floating cloud in fist. But you're naive, its a footprint of fish.
FLY UP ABOVE THE SKY
FLY UP ABOVE THE SKY You were in the cage for years, Bind with not genuine string so far. Lots of poor shapes were, Those approached from nowhere. Oh freed parrot fly up above the sky, Perhaps cross that sea shore and sit thereby. There will be a time for you again, When the paddy field turns gold and shine. Enjoy your meal with fresh grain, But never steal from true owner and gain. Oh freed parrot fly up above the sky, Perhaps cross that sea shore and sit thereby. Now you are a free wild bird to fly, No line is made to be above the sky. Be a companion with the beautiful nature, Sit there camly least for a while and talk with her. Oh freed parrot fly up above the sky, Perhaps cross that sea shore and sit thereby.
