DESCRIPTION:
I made this video for my 5th grade recorder students. Lyrics below.
The notes for the version we use: D E F | F G A | A D D C# D A A G | F E D |

Ah, poor bird,
Why art thou,
Lying in the shadows
Of this dark hour?

Ah, poor bird,
Take they flight,
Far above the sorrows
Of this dark night.

Ah, poor bird,
As you fly,
Can you see the dawn
Of tomorrow's sky?
