Fell in love in the wink of an eye with the girl who was called Butterfly
She said she loved me so she could not let me go but still I had to say goodbye
Butterfly my Butterfly I'll come home to you one day
Butterfly my Butterfly wait for me don't fly away

Never fly in the heat of the sun close your wings when the long day is done
Stay home and wait for me till I get back and then counting the minutes one by one
Butterfly my Butterfly

When a man longs to be free he will sail to the end of the sea
I won't be gone too long but while I travel on just close your wings and wait for me
Butterfly my Butterfly
Butterfly my Butterfly
