Fly away, fly away butterfly do
wing my fond message of love that is true.
Over the meadows into the skies
over the rosebuds to my love's grey eyes.

Fly away, fly away butterfly do
Morning and I have been waiting for you
Out from a garden of lilac and love
Out from a garden like Heav'n above.

Fly again, fly again butterfly do
dawn is now rising and with it the dew
rests on the flowers like tears on my eyes,
fly away butterfly brighten my skies,
Butterfly.
