The Sacred Bird

Kim

From this picture I keep

You, my parents, look out

And you smiles show no scorn

I am happy today

For I know what to do

And my heart is not torn

Spirits know when to fly

When it's time

There's no reason to mourn

For the great sacred bird is reborn

From the ashes he'll rise

And upon his wide wings

I'll watch you from above

I will never be far

But my son, it's your turn

To know your father's love

I know now why I came

To this earth

It's so you find your place

But for that I must leave your embrace

You will be with your father now

Give all your love to him

When I am gone

Take one last look at me

Don't forget what you see

For now you must move on

You will be who you want to be

You can choose whatever heaven grants

As long as you can have your chance

I swear I'll give my life for you

No one will stop what I must do

My son, I'll give my life for you
