Dear azure bird up so high,
Please come down from the sky,
I love your feathers so soft and silky,
I love your pearl white tail so shiny and milky,

If you come down I know what to do,
I will always love and care for you,
I have some seeds you will like to eat,
I have a sunshine yellow nest cosy and neat.

Lovely azure bird can’t you see,
I would love you to be here with me,
Your beautiful blue eyes are so unique
Your beak is so perfect even when you squeak,

Gorgeous Azure bird please come and live with me,
You could fly all around and stay absolutely free,
I would like to meet you and show you how I sing,
I have a special song that you could carry on your wing.
