Caged without a key
Enjaulado sin llave
Everyone comes to stare at me
Todos vienen a mirarme
With so much joy and revelry
Con tanta alegría y juerga
They don't know how I feel inside
No saben como me siento por dentro
Through my smile, I cry
A través de mi sonrisa, lloro
They don't know what they're doin' to me
No saben lo que me están haciendo
Keepin' me from flyin'
Me impide volar
That's why I say that
Por eso digo eso
I know why the caged bird sings
Sé por qué canta el pájaro enjaulado
And only joy comes from song
Y sólo la alegría viene de la canción
She's so rare and beautiful to others
Ella es tan rara y hermosa para los demás.
Why not just set her free?
¿Por qué no simplemente dejarla libre?
So she can fly, fly, fly
Para que ella pueda volar, volar, volar
Spreadin' her wings and her song
Extendiendo sus alas y su canción
Let her fly, fly, fly
Déjala volar, volar, volar.
For the whole world to see
Para que todo el mundo vea
She's like a caged bird
Ella es como un pájaro enjaulado
Fly, fly
vuela, vuela
Ooh, just let her fly
Ooh, solo déjala volar
Just let her fly, just let her fly
Sólo déjala volar, sólo déjala volar
Spread wings, spread beauty
Extiende alas, difunde belleza.
