My sword-swallow,
Who taught you to build?
and with art and passion
to take care of your nest?
But, my sweet little girl,
Our God, who else?
created the world beautiful
which is infinitely large!
I won't talk about the other animals,
I'll talk to you about birds.
but wait a minute first
to feed my babies.
He gave, as you say, too much.
power and greatness
to the rooster. to the parrot
Give me words and brio1.
To the various songbirds
with the nightingale as conductor
give a sweet voice
but beauty in the peacock.
He distributed graces to creation.
God loves me abundantly.
from the depths of the sea
up to the stars in the sky.
For our gifts each
we tweet with faith
I feel blessed too.
that God made me a builder.
