Den lilla fågeln is a song written by Karin Gustafsson, and originally released by Stig Lorentz on 1984 album Räck ut din hand.[1]

Stefan Borsch covered the song, scoring a Svensktoppen hit for 20 weeks between 29 November 1987[2]-17 April 1988[3]

In 1989 the song was covered by Thord Åhman on the album På väg 3.[4]

Säwes also recorded the song in 1987, as Luffarpojken with lyrics by Paul Sahlin.[5] Jirix also recorded the song as Luffarpojken, on the 1989 album Hemmets jord.[5]

With the song title "Den lilla fågeln", the lyrics tell the story of a girl named "Lena", who is sleeping a Sunday morning when being wakened up by a bird appearing next to her window looking for food, and she wants to let the bird in, but not rob the bird on its freedom. The "Luffarpojken" version describes a vagabond boy, on the run from an orphanage.
