Fly away, my bird... -

Светик Петрова
Fly away, my gorgeous bird, straight to stars,
Fly from earthly fears, splitting sky in two,
For a century imprisoned behind iron bars,
Worshiping heavy clouds on sky crystal blue.

Spread your battered wings to meet the sunrise,
Let your tiny dreams carry you above the light
Where under silky blanket of the starry night
You synchronize with flock of white swans cries.

Fly behind clouds under rattle of torrential rain,
Neither lightning nor thunder should scare you,
Fly higher and faster despite your bleeding pain,
There's no more prison, here is your life anew.

Fly with lightness towards new hopes far ahead,
Scars will be healed in a blink of your eye,
Nobody should see your tears and hear your sighs,
Isn't it better to fly with your wings spread?

Fly, my little bird, but don't forget the one
Who broke your chains letting taste the freedom,
Who threw you up into the heaven kingdom
Spurring you on to approach the scorching sun.
