A cabbage butterfly fluttered in
Through the slightly opened window
It flittered freely from wall to wall
In the classroom during class
I want to go to you on the wind like that
That way, you wouldn't notice me…
First love is a butterfly
Don't catch me
You are my flower
A lonely butterfly
Though I'm right here
I can't say anything
You were staring straight ahead
With a beautifully serious expression
It landed on your ponytail
Could it be because of the sweet smell of your shampoo?
Like I was having an out-of-body experience
I'm gazing at you from here
First love is a butterfly
I'm bothersome, but
Don't put me outside
Just a little longer as a butterfly
Let me stay by your side
Because I love you
Look, on the desk
It's come to rest
When it stopped to catch its breath
You winked
First love is a butterfly
Don't catch me
You are my flower
A lonely butterfly
Though you're right here
Love is so far away
First love is a butterfly
I'm bothersome, but
Don't put me outside
Just a little longer as a butterfly
Let me stay by your side
Because I love you
