Can Wrens Speak Sparrow?

I Read a poem where the poet wondered if birds
of different species

could understand the language of those
different species,

like Wrens understanding the songs and chirps
of sparrows.

According to what I discovered, birds from repetition
can understand what some of

the sounds other birds make regarding sounds that
warn of predators.

I supposed if different species of birds lived close
together, they could learn what other sounds meant,

sort of like how humans could learn some of the words
of humans who spoke a different language.
