English to Latin

Please help
I desperately need a translation for the following poem please:

I never saw a wild thing
sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself.

nunquam vidi

Thank you very much George. This is for a very important tattoo, you are a gem.

Before getting this as a tattoo, please have someone else review it.
I'm not a professional Latin scholar, just a guy who does this for fun.

Thank you none the less Smile

...and you're quite welcome.

Correction:
"motua" should be "mortua"

Well, "really good" is a matter of taste, but here are some:

Nemo in amore videt. (Propertius)
No one in love sees (i.e. love is blind).

Quis enim bene celat amorem? (Ovid)
Who can conceal love?

Si vis amari, ama. (Seneca)
If you wish to be loved, love.

Amare et sapere vix deo conceditur. (Syrus)
To love and to be wise is scarcely even granted to a god.

Quos amor verus tenuit, tenebit. (Seneca)
Those whom true love has held, it will go on holding.

One small correction: I believe it would be mori, not morire. Otherwise, I completely agree.

Actually, it should have been "morere" (not "morire"), the imperative of
the deponent verb "morior".

Ah, so we were both initially wrong. I was confused because it looked like an infinitive. But I agree with morere.

Please translate this into Latin.
Hi. I would appreciate it if someone would translate the phrase below in to Latin for me. I am debating on putting this into a tattoo if it is not too long. Thank you in advance.

And from the shadows we shall burst forth reborn, for God is within us.
