Butterfly, butterfly, come fly here
Yellow butterfly, white butterfly
Come dance
Flower petals in the spring breeze
Smiling brightly
The sparrows also tweet tweet tweet
Sing and dance
Korean – 나비야
나비야 나비야, 이리 날아 오너라
노랑나비 흰 나비
춤을 추며 오너라
봄바람에 꽃잎도
방긋방긋 웃으며
참새도 짹짹짹
노래하며 춤춘다
Recorder Notes G, A, B, C, D’
