cute!

So, this reminds me of my favorite character in my favorite opera, "l'enfant et les sortileges" by my favorite composer Maurice Ravel. This particular character has been captured by a naughty child, who says that he only captured it to look at its beautiful eyes. This character sings:
"Sais-tu ce qu’ils reflétaient, mes beaux yeux ? Le ciel
libre, le vent libre, mes libres frères, au bond sûr
comme un vol... Regarde donc ce qu’ils reflétaient,
mesbeaux yeux tout miroitants de larmes!"

It is telling the child that its beautiful eyes only saw its lost freedom, and that they shine because of tears. It's a beautiful story with beautiful music, and I highly recommend it to everyone.
