Eagle of the skies



The anger within me is not a negative one
it means I'm starving for something big
it means I've been waiting, but no more
it means I'm out, hunting for The Big.

The anger within me is no anger for someone
it means I'm dying to burst out
it means I'm yearning to come out
it means I'm out, hunting for The Big.

Get ready, World ! Get ready for me !
Put on your best clothes ! Put on them for me !
Head high and chest out, I'm breaking free !
Eyes hungry, heart open, I'm coming for thee !

The anger within me is not a negative one
it means I'm lusting for what is mine to come,
it means I'm lurking for the better one
it means I'm ready for what is mine to come.

Get ready, World ! Get ready for this !
Put on your best clothes ! Put on your best dress !
Little do you know that the bird in the cage
Has grown into an eagle, an eagle with rage !

Get ready, World ! It's all you can do...
Get ready, World ! Watch me break through !
Little did you know that the bird behind bars
Was born to be an eagle, eagle of the skies.

(by Upanishada - 13th Oct. 2011)
