Whisper, whisper in your ear
It's the voice of one you hold so dear.
Flowery words is how I start
To captivate your trusting heart.

If you love me...

You sang so prettily, my little bird
A most beautiful song, unlike any heard,
So to stop you soaring in the skies
I'll cage you, bird, from those greedy eyes.

You will die for me...

With selfless love you spread your wings
But it is now a lonely song that you sing:
For you are mine, and belong to me and me alone…

My Pretty Little Bird.
