Sweetie you just gotta try
The caterpillar never knew
about the wings,
all he was worried about
was tree for leaf eating,

He ate ate ate and ate
until the time he was full,
his eyes were sleepy
he slept like a bull,

Little did he know
he was covered with silk soon,
everything was warm but dark
he was trapped in his own cocoon,

Caterpillar got scared
didn't know what's happening,
Cried for a while, blamed the God
for everything that was happening,

Tired of crying
he tried to gather his strength,
broke each silk strand
7th, 8th, 9th and finally 10th,

Once free from cocoon
caterpillar started smiling,
soon he noticed his new wings
beautiful Butterfly he was becoming,

Bright colors,
Ability to fly,
Struggle births Beauty,
Sweetie you just gotta try...
Sweetie you just gotta try...
