Лептирићу, шаренићу
(Српски)

Лептирићу, шаренићу, ходи к’ мени амо
Ево имам лепу ружу, помириши само
Ево имам лепу ружу, помириши само

Ја бих дош’о, ал’ се бојим какве игле клете
Стиснућеш ме, пробошћеш ме, онда збогом свете
Стиснућеш ме, пробошћеш ме, онда збогом свете

Нећу лепко, нећу лепко, живота ми мога
Само хоћу да избројим кол’ко имаш нога
Само хоћу да избројим кол’ко имаш нога

Е па то ти могу рећи и издаље малко
Лептир има шест ножица, а сад збогом брајко
Лептир има шест ножица, а сад збогом брајко


Colorful Little Butterfy
(English)

Oh, my little butterfly,
Would you please just come to me!
Here's a beautiful rose, just smell it
Here's a beautiful rose, just smell it.

I would like to come and see, I would like to twinkle by
But, your needle might poke me and my life might go bye bye
But, your needle might poke me and my life might go bye bye

I won't do that, don't be scared, cross my heart so you could know.
I would only like to bend, count how many legs you grow.
I would only like to bend, count how many legs you grow.

That's something I can tell even if I'm not close by
I have six legs that are swell, and now, my dear boy, bye bye!
I have six legs that are swell, and now, my dear boy, bye bye!

Lyrics by Jovan Jovanović Zmaj
