グレーなくもがながれたら
このそらがなきやんだら
きみのこえでめをさます
ちょっとながめのねむりから
きみはそっとみまもった
このせのつばさ
とびたつきせつをまって
しろいすなはまをみおろしながら
むずかしいはなしはいらない
きみがわらってくれればいい
そういって ぼくにわらいかけた
ことばはひつようなかった
いばしょはいつもここにあった
たいようがまぶしいと
たたきながら
うるんでくひとみをごまかす
あおいそらをともにいこうよ
どこへたとりつくだとしでも
もしもきずをおったそのときは
ぼくのつばさをきみにあげる
そういってきみはすこしないた
きみはそっとみまもった
このせのつばさ
とびたつきせつをまって
あおいそらをともにいこうよ
しろいすなはまをみおろしながら
The song "Bird" by Rihwa is a beautiful, nostalgic ballad that speaks of love, freedom, and the ability to soar above life's difficulties. The lyrics discuss a longing for escape and the desire to be able to fly away from the mundane, gray aspects of life. The imagery of a bird taking flight and soaring through the sky is utilized to convey this sense of longing and the desire to see the world from a new perspective.
The lyrics also reference a lover, someone who provides comfort and safety in a world that is often difficult to navigate. The singer sings of their lover's voice waking them up from their slumber and providing a sense of stability. Throughout the song, there is a sense that the two lovers are embarking on a journey together, with the singer offering their own wings to their beloved if they ever need help.
The song's overall theme is one of hope and the desire for freedom, both in terms of physical escape and emotional release. The simple yet profound lyrics and the gentle acoustic guitar accompaniment create a sense of warmth and intimacy that make the song all the more poignant.
