**[Verse 1]** With straw in its beak, the myna bird flies away Far, so very far The bullock cart moves along the dusty rural road Far, so very far With straw in its beak, the myna bird flies away Far, so very far The bullock cart moves along the dusty rural road Far, so very far **[Chorus]** All birds return home—you will return too When dusk arrives Ink scratches tear through the pages of a poet’s notebook Anytime, every time (Oh ho ho) (Oh ho ho) (Oh ho ho) (Oh ho ho) **[Verse 2]** All the doves of the world Call out together In the Hizol forest In spring In the breeze There lingers A touch carried from the roaring sea **[Chorus]** All birds return home—you will return too When dusk arrives Ink scratches tear through the pages of a poet’s notebook Anytime, every time I will return again Back To the banks of the Dhanshiri River I will return again Back To the banks of the Dhanshiri River **[Verse 3]** With straw in its beak, the myna bird flies away Far, so very far The bullock cart moves along the dusty rural road Far, so very far With straw in its beak, the myna bird flies away Far, so very far The bullock cart moves along the dusty rural road Far, so very far **[Chorus]** All birds return home—you will return too When dusk arrives Ink scratches tear through the pages of a poet’s notebook Anytime, every time (Oh ho ho) (Oh ho ho) (Oh ho ho) (Oh ho ho)
