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.

You listened friends, parents and relatives, Occasionally considered them as guide. For ordinary hard to select the genuine, Because you haven't attained high realm yet, To secure the accuracy in a moment. You were attached with an invisible air, Blows in any direction in search of self-regard. Tried hardest to step forward on bamboo bridge, Made up of a single bamboo laid accross.

Create a new world for you to live now. Build a home not a house. Assemble inner peace and true humanity. Don't let others to establish any destruction, Parted away from evil attachments. Make your own accord and live happily ever an...
