Hey Butterfly,
Why don't you flutter by?
Just spread your wings,
And dive into the sky.
For who knows for sure,
If the world ain't upside down,
In the ocean I might breathe,
In the wakeful might I drown.

Hey butterfly,
Aren't we two alike?
One dead other dying,
One gone but the other still trying.
And we might meet again sometime,
Where I'll be the butterfly,
And you the stranger,
Who in solidarity stood by.

Hey butterfly,
Your stillness still reeks of life,
And somehow I can recognise,
In our wretched togetherness,
The essence of what we share,
A unity of being,
Of you and me,
My dear friend, I bid you Goodbye!
