10. Little Sky
(music – Lucas Michailidis, words – Zulya Kamalova)

lyrics

Oh how she loves to climb her favourite tree,
Counting sparrows she feels like a bird, she is light and free.
Whether it’s rain or snow, she’s always here.
She is seven already,
The socks are wet on her feet.

She can almost touch the wire.
She wonders if she’d get a shock?
Birds on wire safely perch.
How she wishes that she were a bird!

Nobody can find her in her little sky,
No one ever looks up above.
Though it is not high, for her it is just right,
The poplar tree is high enough.

It’s getting dark, she is tired and bored.
Should she climb down below and deal with the real world?
Out of the blue she’s struck with a curious thought:
Maybe touching the wire will turn her into a bird?
