Analysis of The nightingale



In the notes of a song
I wrap myself
Those melodies with a beautiful chorus
Serenading at night
While flying over
Seem sweet in every whispered word
Strain so sweetly flow
I am a nightingale
Sweet bird that sings away
The early hours
Chanting with a solemn voice
The nightingale
