Pushkar, Rajasthan, India
Seeking the freedom
It soared high in the sky
Trapped in a golden kingdom
It dared not die
It soared high in the sky
Spreading its tiny wings
It dared not die
Recklessly flaps and sings
Spreading its tiny wings
Ready to reach the light
Recklessly flaps and sings
Determined to end the fight
Ready to reach the light
Trapped in a golden kingdom
Determined to end the fight
Seeking the freedom
