I was not when you were born
You were old when I was born
I was not when you were born
You were old when I was born
You regret that I was late born
I regret that you were early born
I was not when you were born,
You were old when I was born,
I wished to have been born together
We could enjoy our time together
You were not when I was born
I was old when you were born
I was so far away from you
You were so distant from me
You were not when I was born
I was old when you were born
I'd become a flower-seeking butterfly
And sleep on the fragrant grass every night.
