It is the time of twilight I want to go sleep
I hide a butterfly in my hand which came to see me
There is gold in its wings and it's fluttering a bit
I raise it in my palm I'm not going to hurt
There is a letter in my pocket I'm going to send home
And I will show it to you if you want to know more
I'm doing just fine here and I'll come back soon
I'll make a house of the ruins in which I would live with you
refrain:
You arrived and breathed calming air to my forehead
Then I knew a mortal always was easy to confess
Lastly his love
The fields of glory is the last place where one will have another
Of people one of them will stay laying in the fields of glory
I waited for spring too much in their trenches
All quiet from the Western Front not even tomorrow
I raised my head to see the world
Catching for a butterfly resting its wings
It is the time for twilight and I close my eyes
But before I wake up I want to open my hands and
Release the butterfly which is the most beautiful
It is good to fall asleep after seeing the sun
