Today, I have no stories to tell,
No thoughts to ruminate over.
I am a silent bird today,
Looking longingly at the horizon,
Waiting for the sun to set,
And the world to sleep.
So that I may rise again
Tomorrow, renewed and rejuvenated.
And tomorrow,
when the sun will emerge
Out of the darkness,
Arousing those who are asleep,
I may sing to the world
Like I was always meant to be
But that day is not today.
But soon it will be.
