  He’s with me always, by my side

My friend, protector and my guide.

He is my life, my hope, my breath

For he detects the smell of death.

 

The gas that through the tunnel spills

And in a single moment kills

Is stripped of all its power and force

By my canary friend, of course.

 

Who would have thought a tiny bird

Could mean so much, it’s so absurd.

And yet my safety so relies

Upon this angel in disguise.
