Butterfly, Butterfly in the sky,
You are so beautiful as you fly.
With your wings spread open
And your colors shining bright,
You flutter about, reaching endless heights.
So delicate and fragile
Yet so attractive and charming,
Your beauty and elegance are so very alarming.
I want to keep you as my pet,
But you are too precious to be kept.
Butterfly, Butterfly in the sky,
Why must you always pass me by?
