Oh Butterfly, Do Not Yet Float Away

Butterfly, butterfly, please don't you float away
On your flower you should stay
At least for another day

Butterfly, butterfly, your wings fan aside my tears
Your soft flutter soothes my fears
I've a storm-less mind when you are near

You're as fair as the wind is free
You're like mother and child
Cast your arms towards me
We'll be bounded and wild

Butterfly, butterfly, please don't you depart
Your search for love should never start
You can occupy my empty heart

Butterfly, butterfly, in me you do revive
Times that are sadly not alive
In my memories you dive

You're as fair as the wind is free
You're like mother and child
Cast your arms towards me
We'll be bounded and wild

Butterfly, butterfly, when I'm deaf and when I'm blind
You'll still linger in my mind
And your glow will illuminate my sky

Butterfly, butterfly, you say so much with little sound
I know this is not your native ground,
And other gardens you are bound
