this is a poem from Paul LAurenceDunbar(1872-1906)
SympathyI know what the caged bird feels,
alas!
when the sun is bright on the uplandslopes;
when the the wind stirs soft trough the springing grass;
and the river flows like a steam of glass;
when the first bird sings and the first bud opens,
and the faint perfume from its chalice steals-----
i know what the caged bird feels!I know why the caged bird beats his wings
till its blood is red on the cruel bars;
for he must fly back to his perch and cling
when he fain would be on the bough a-swing;
and a pain still throbs in the old,old scars
and they pulse again
with akeener sting-----
i know why he beats his wings.I know why the caged bird sings;ah me
when his wing is bruised and his bossom is sore----
when he beats his bars and he would be free;
it is not a carol of joy or glee,
but a prayer that he sends from his hearts deep core,
but a plea,that upwardto heaven he flings-----
i know why the caged bird sings!this will make a grown man cry!!!
ich liebe euch
