Help out with this riddle please...?

Too small, too small for me,
I would be free, be free !
With folded wing, sweet songs I'll sing,
As I rest on the greenwood tree.
No cage, no cage for me !... Read More
I love my liberty!
I would soar away, through the summer day,
Warbling right merrily.
And then, and then for rest!
When the sun sinks in the West,
The fireflies bright, their lanterns light,
And the hen-bird seeks her nest.
In my leafy home I doze,
Close beside a sweet wild rose.
Behind my wing, my head I bring,
And sleep till the morning glows.
"live in your cage ?' Not I.
I should pine, I should droop and die !
Oh, dark-eyed Canary ! I am free as a fairy,
Away then, away I will fly!
