Original lyrics
EN[Verse:]
Locked in a cage I'm sad as I can be
Singing my song all the day long
It seems I can hear the forest calling me
How I keep longing just to be free
[Refrain:]
I'd love to leave my little red lacquer cage
And fly away out there where I
Could sing my beautiful song
In the forest where I belong
The little birds that live in a tree
Would love to hear my sweet melody
I hate to sing the song that God gave to me
In a little red lacquer cage
