'''BUTTERFLY [2], THE'''. English, Country Dance Tune (2/2 time). A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). ABA'. The tune is apparently a folk-process derivation of "I'd be a Butterfly," words and melody by English dramatist and song writer Thomas Haynes Bayly (1797-1829). It was written in 1825 when "on his honeymoon at Lord Ashdown's, Mr. Bayly, flying from some fair sirens, retreated to a bower, and there wrote his world-famous 'I'd be a Butterfly' " (Andrew Lang, 1844-1912). 
<blockquote>
''I’d be a butterfly born in a bower,''<br>
''Where roses and lilies and violets meet.''<br>
''Roving for ever from flower to flower,'' <br>
''And kissing all buds that are pretty and sweet.''<br>
</blockquote>
