Hummingbird Lyrics

Many native cultures regarded the hummingbird symbolically.
They wore tribal costumes and created ceremonial music with hummingbird lyrics.
Today, the beautiful bird is still symbolized as love, romance, and courage during hardship.
Hummingbird songs are too numerous to mention all but I will name a few favorites.

We personally believe that hummingbirds inspire song artists on account of their beauty and unique behavior.
We can imagine a musician sitting quietly with her or his thoughts hopeful for inspiration.
Along comes a tiny hummingbird, amazing in every sense and a well known symbol throughout the world and here comes the muse in the form of this adored bird.

Is is a song about love, or loss, courage, not taking the time to reflect on life's blessings but hurrying through life without reflection? Any of these themes would be appropriate to use the hummingbird as a symbol.

Famous artists who wrote hummingbird songs are too numerous to mention for good reason. They range throughout every music genre from Classical to Rock including Blues, Soul, Folk, and even Polka.

“Hummingbird”
............by Cat Stevens

“There’s a yellow flower by your bed
Sadly droopin’ it’s perfumed head

“Oh hummingbird, mankind was
Waiting for you to come
Flying along
Heavenly Songbird we are so
Wrong, we’ve harmed you
Oh Hummingbird, lend us your wings
Let us soar in the atmosphere of Abba
“Lift us up to the Heaven of Holinees
Oh Source of being! –Oh,
Hummingbird”

“Hummingbird”
............by Leon Russell

Sometimes I get impatient,
But she cools me without words
And she comes so sweet and plain,
my hummingbird and have you heard,
that I thought my life had ended
But I find that it’s just begun,
‘cause she gets me where I live
I’ll give all I have to give…”


“Hummingbird”
............by B.B.King

Sometimes I get impatient,
But she cools me without words
And she comes so sweet and plain,
my hummingbird and have you heard,
that I thought my life had ended
But I find that it’s just begun,
‘cause she gets me where I live
I’ll give all I have to give…”


"Hummingbirds"
.................by Eddie Reader
"Hummingbird, hummingbird
I knew I'd find you here
Bright lights draw you near
they always will
All that work and worry just to stay still
Hummingbird, hummingbird always on my mind, does it get you down?
You never reach the sky and you cannot touch the ground."
