Butterfly O sweet butterfly How lovely How beautiful How magnificent you are! It's so marvelous So extraordinary! How you so Mysteriously transform. O lowly caterpillar, Do you know What you shall be? Do you know the wonders That await you, Dear caterpillar, Do you see? Do you see the butterfly So divine! So sweet! That you shall become? My butterfly, Precious butterfly, You lay pierced though By a pin So that I may observe Your delicacy Your beauty Your grace (And wings that Never shall flutter again)
