A butterfly is flying,
Pulling me by my dupatta!
A butterfly is flying,
Pulling me by my dupatta!
Ah, it touches and catches me,
It showers colors and smiles!
Letting go and touching again,
Flit, flit, flit, flit,
It flies so freely!
Floating like a cloud,
My body floats!
Drinking up the entire sky,
My thirst!
High up in the skies,
My feet are flying!
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying!
From my shoulders,
Wings are sprouting!
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying!
Hey!
A butterfly is flying,
Pulling you by your dupatta!
A butterfly is flying,
Pulling you by your dupatta!
When I met you,
I found myself!
Even when I was asleep,
I thought of your name!
When I met you,
I discovered a whole new world!
When I looked into your eyes,
I found my love!
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
A butterfly is flying!
Pulling, pulling,
Pulling, pulling,
It pulls my dupatta!
Love has touched me,
My eyes swam in dreams!
Reaching deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper,
Deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper,
I dive in and gather pearls!
High up in the skies,
My feet are flying!
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying!
From my shoulders,
Wings are sprouting!
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying!
Ah, a butterfly is flying,
Pulling me by my dupatta!
A butterfly is flying,
Pulling me by my dupatta!
Yaayi yaayi yaayi yaayi
Yaayi yaayi yaayi yaai
Yaayi yaayi yaayi yaayi
Yaayi yaayi yaayi yaai
I need neither air nor water,
A glance from your eyes is enough!
My darling, I need no paradise,
Resting in your lap is enough!
Time does not need to rush ahead,
This moment in my heart is enough!
My love, no words are needed,
Your silence alone is enough!
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
A butterfly is flying!
Pulling, pulling, pulling,
It pulls my dupatta!
Love has taken deep root in my soul,
Flowers are blooming in my heart!
As the fragrance continues on and on,
On and on, on and on,
Life itself has come knocking at my door!
High up in the skies,
My feet are flying!
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying!
Oh ho, from my shoulders,
Wings are sprouting!
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying!
A butterfly is flying,
Pulling you by your dupatta!
A butterfly is flying,
Pulling you by your dupatta!
Touching and catching me,
It showers colors and smiles!
Letting go and touching again,
Flit, flit, flit, flit,
It flies so freely!
Floating like a cloud,
My body floats!
Drinking up the entire sky,
My thirst!
High up in the skies,
My feet are flying...
Hey hey hey hey
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying!
From my shoulders,
Wings are sprouting...
Hey hey hey hey
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying,
Flying, flying!
