A Little Wind

(A Song)

When I lay down In a clover place, With eyelids closed, In a clover place, A little wind came to my face.

One gentle wind Blew on my mouth, And I said, "It will quiver by. What little wind now can it be?" And I lay still Where the clovers were.

But when I raised my lids to see, Then it was a butterfly.
