Tune: "Tsui-chung T'ien" To the Giant Butterfly
This butterfly escaped, it seems,
From the chrysalis of Chuang Tzu's dreams,
Spread two great wings upon the spring air,
Then sucked three hundred gardens bare!
Might not elegant creatures such as these
Shame to death our simple honeybees?
Or, giving their wings a tiny shake,
Blow our flower vendors in the lake?!
