Birds Don't Cry

Birds don't cry
Butterfly don't weep
So why should you weep?
I handed you my fragnmented heart
Take it and mend the million broken piece!
Your beauty intoxicate my eyes to its marrow!

Don't weep here and there,
I will shield you from pains.
Don't look at the watery sun and cry,
Days ahead command respect to all.
If you live here, let the market market their wares.

Birds don't suffer,
Why should you suffer at the presence of abundant?
You made the man that calls within me a man,
I will never leave until the broken heart is healed,
Tend to your heart and love you till eternity.
