Sympathy • I know what the caged bird feels alas! When the sun is bright on the upland slopes! When the wind stirs soft through the springing grass And river flows like a stream of glass when the first bird sings and the first bud opes And the faint perfume from in Chalice steals I know what caged bird feels.
Sympathy • I know why he caged bird beats his wing til 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 scars and they pulse again with a keener sting-I know why he beats his wings.
Sympathy • I know why the caged bird sings oh me when his wing is bruised and his bosom sore when he beats his bars and would be free it is not a would be free it is not a carol of joy or glee but a prayer that he sends his hearts deep core but a plea that upward to heaven he flings I know why the cage bird sings • Paul Laurence Dunbar
