***Little nightingale,
wings of white and gold.
Little nightingale,
singing gay and bold.
Fly away, far from your iron cage.
Fly away, up in the North sky.
One day you will come back,
singing your last requiem to me,
For I shall be there to hear no more.
You are very brave,
and you are very free,
So do not fall into sorrow,
do not fall into eternal repose.
But until then...
- Sing, oh sing,
My sweetest nightingale
high above my broken baroque grave***
