Butterfly (Ohr Naava)

There are times when I stand by a mirror

To take a close look at myself

And the face that I see, looking right back at me

Wishes it was someone else

But there is only one you

A fragment of light from above

That would joyfully serve and cling to Hashem

If only it knew the depth of His love

Time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly

Show yourself and the world just how very high

You can fly, you can soar, once you unlock the door

And Hashem will be there at your side

And Hashem will be there at your side

♪

There are times when I hear music playing

But it's more a lament than a song

I'm so used to the pain of its tragic refrain

That whispers "You don't belong"

But there is only one you

A Neshoma most precious and sweet

Our lives are a chorus in praise of Hashem

And when your voice is missing, the song's incomplete

It's time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly

Show yourself and the world just how very high

You can fly, you can soar, once you unlock the door

And Hashem will be there at your side

And Hashem will be there at your side

♪

I've been told every soul sent from heaven

Has its very own mountain to climb

Though some do prevail, many stumble and fail

And I know not which fate will be mine

But there is only one you

With a calling of your very own

The road may be long, a test of the heart

But you'll never, no, never, have to walk it alone

Time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly

Show yourself and the world just how very high

You can fly, you can soar, once you unlock the door

And Hashem will be there at your side

Yes, He'll always be there at our side
