Behold her, sitting alone,

A shy, beautiful and adorable lass.

Lost in her own thinkings,

So wait for her, or gently pass.


Alone she thinks about her pain.

Which let her be in strain.

O listen! her song's sound,

which is overflowing from the ground.


A voice so thrilling, never I've heard.

At anytime from any bird.

Which makes me feel proud,

by breaking the noise of the crowd.


Will no one tell me what she sings,

Or should I go and listen to her.

Perhaps some of her familiar loss or pain,

That has happened and may be again.


Whatever the theme, she may sings,

May her voice deliver, what she's sending.

I saw such a beauty, to be given a friendship ring,

So that none of her pain may be pending.


However, I have to go on my path,

Leaving the sound which refreshed my heart.

Hope her singing may remove her sore,

And long after, I heard her voice no more.
