[Verse]
The touch of hooves
On grass for the first time
It’s wet and watered, and
It makes her start to run
And circle around, awakening desires
That were hidden deep inside
The air brushes her snout
And the winter sun warms her
She plays with calves and bulls
She lets children approach her
And caregivers, taking her away from memories
[Refrain]
Of those miserable days and that dark building
[Chorus]
They had never experiеnced it
They had nevеr had it before
They had no space
And had never felt the air
Nor the sun, the rain, or the snow
Nor the feel of grass beneath their feet
They had never experienced it
They had never had it before
They had no space and had never felt the air
Nor the sun, the rain, or the snow
Nor the feel of grass beneath their feet
[Verse]
A cow galloping
A rooster spreading its wings triumphantly
A goat jumping
A sow rolling in mud
A turkey perched on a branch
A duck splashing in the pond
A sheep, a goose, a donkey
A refuge, a home, a house
A broken leg healing
A caress, a cuddle
A malice that’s gone
A family nearby
A life without blows
Without pushes, without bars
[Refrain]
Without miserable days in that dark building
[Chorus]
They had never experienced it
They had never had it before
They had no space
And had never felt the air
Nor the sun, the rain, or the snow
Nor the feel of grass beneath their feet
They had never experienced it
They had never had it before
They had no space and had never felt the air
Nor the sun, the rain, or the snow
Nor the feel of grass beneath their feet
