    The Fools Song

    William Carlos Williams, 1883 - 1963


    I tried to put a bird in a cage.
    O fool that I am!
    For the bird was Truth.
    Sing merrily, Truth: I tried to put
    Truth in a cage!
    And when I had the bird in the cage,
    O fool that I am!
    Why, it broke my pretty cage.
    Sing merrily, Truth: I tried to put
    Truth in a cage!
    And when the bird was flown from the cage,
    O fool that I am!
    Why, I had nor bird nor cage.
    Sing merrily, Truth: I tried to put
    Truth in a cage!
    Heigh-ho! Truth in a cage.
