Fly away my dear li'l butterfly
on those golden gossamer wings
May you set aglow every peak high!
Don't look back dear, don't you even try
to scan my sad face for tear's springs
Fly away my dear li'l butterfly
I won't let you see my tear-filled eye,
the deep anguish that farewell brings.
May you set aglow every peak high!
Now, dear child, let's wave a goodbye;
Go, ride every wave, break all strings
Fly away, my dear li'l butterfly
May every kid you touch also fly
with you, wonder, sprout their own wings
May you set aglow every peak high!
Your goal's set, your aim is the sky
Yon horizon's where glory springs
Fly away my dear li'l butterfly
May you set aglow every peak high!

Fly away my dear li'l butterfly
on those golden gossamer wings
May you set aglow every peak high!
Don't look back dear, don't you even try
to scan my sad face for tear's springs
Fly away my dear li'l butterfly
I won't let you see my tear-filled eye,
the deep anguish that farewell brings.
May you set aglow every peak high!
Now, dear child, let's wave a goodbye;
Go, ride every wave, break all strings
Fly away, my dear li'l butterfly
May every kid you touch also fly
with you, wonder, sprout their own wings
May you set aglow every peak high!
Your goal's set, your aim is the sky
Yon horizon's where glory springs
Fly away my dear li'l butterfly
May you set aglow every peak high!
