Mam, could te tell me who’s house this is?
Beggar Woman (spoken)

And the young lady who resides there?
Beggar Woman (spoken)

A little jig jig. A little bounce around the bush.

Johanna:
Green finch, and linnet bird,
Nightingale, blackbird,
How is it te sing?
How can te jubilate
sitting in cages
never taking wing?
Outside the sky waits
beckoning!
Beckoning!
Just beyond the bars...
How can te remain
staring at the rain
maddened da the stars?
How is it te sing
anything?
How is it te sing?
Green finch. and linnet bird,
nightingale, blackbird
How is it te sing?
Whence comes this melody
constantly floating?
Is it rejoicing o merely aloaming?
Are te discussing?
o fussing?
o simply dreaming?
Are te crowing?
Are te screaming?
Ringdove and robinet
is it for wages?
Canto to be sold?
Have te decided it's safer in cages
Canto when you're told?
My cage has many rooms
damask and dark...
Nothing there sings,
not even my lark.
Larks never will, te know,
when they're captive.
Teach me to be more
adaptive.
Ah...
Green Finch, and Linnet Bird,
nightingale, blackbird,
teach me how to sing.
If I cannot fly...
Let me sing.
