街角ピックアップ～かのこばと

カノコバト（Spotted Dove)か、キジバト（Turtle Dove)か？普通の鳩は、群れて、ずうずうしく糞をまき散らすので大嫌いだが、この鳩は好きである。タイでよく見かける、この鳩らしき鳥が群れているところを見たことがない。大概、一匹か2匹が、ぽつぽつと歩きながら何だか分からない餌をついばんでいる。もし、キジバトなら、Lullaby Birdland に出てくるあの鳥だ。

Lullaby of Birdland, that's what I 
Always hear when you sigh
Never in my wordland 
Could there be ways to reveal
In a phrase how I feel

Have you ever seen two turtle doves
Bill and coo when they love?
That's the kind of magic 
Music we make with our lips when we kiss

And there's a weepy old willow
He really knows how to cry
That's how I'd cry in my pillow
If you should tell me farewell and goodbye

Lullaby of Birdland whisper low
Kiss me sweet then we'll go
Flyin' high in Birdland
High in the sky up above
We're in love

When I hear the lullaby of Birdland
Crazy swing in lullaby of Birdland
All it seems to do is just remind me
That I am also in love, I don't know what to do

When I hear the lullaby of Birdland
Crazy swing in lullaby of Birdland
All it seems to do is just remind me
Of the nights that I spent lovin' you

Lullaby of Birdland whisper low
Kiss me sweet, then we'll go
Flyin' high in Birdland
High in the sky up above
And I know I discovered just why
I am so much in love, so much in love, baby with you
Lullaby, oh bye bye
