Butterflies

Sang a lullaby to a butterfly
Child’s wide brown eyes, secrets inside
She said, «When I die, become a butterfly
You can flutter and colour in meadows and hills
Beauty gave me the chills
Flyin' on your own, then a thousand mourn
Thousand souls swarmin', thousands were performin'."
Bright white, emerald green
Silk blue, sailin' seas
And the spotted wings
Go, go blow in the wind
Bright white, emerald green
Silk blue, sailin' seas
And the spotted wing
Go, go blow in the wind
Go, go, go, go blow in the wind
In their old house, from a lover’s mouth
He kept feathered in behind the bamboo screen
She said, «When he died, became a butterfly
He was flutterin', colourin' meadows and hills
Beauty gave us the chills
Flyin' on your own, then a thousand mourn
Thousand souls swarmin', thousands were performin'
Thousand souls swarmin', thousands were performin'."
Bright white, emerald green
Silk blue, sailin' seas
And the spotted wings
Go, go blow in the wind
Bright white, emerald green
Silk blue, sailin' seas
And the spotted wing
Go, go blow in the wind
Go, go
