I am walking through a never-ending tunnel;
My body hurts, but I will never stop.
Nobody hears my steps when I am wandering in darkness,
But while I live, I shall not lose my hope.

I always see a guiding light in front of me -
It's shining like a million suns, it lights the way ahead.
It gives my life a reason and it makes me free.
This light is my dear butterfly, that's my eternal friend.

Don't kill the butterfly,
Please let him live.
Don't kill my butterfly,
Won't you forgive?

I see the ruins of my life -
There lies my weary butterfly.
He's tired from the flight;
It's time for him to die.

Don't die, dear butterfly,
I still need you.
If you die, butterfly -
I shall die too.

I always saw a guiding light in front of me -
It was shining like a million suns, it lit the way ahead.
It gave my life a reason and it made me free.
This light was my dear butterfly, but now he's lying dead.
