The components are weaved in such a personal manner, that the polyphonic music of AYIN ALEPH can not properly refer to lyrical metal or symphonic rock as existing. Her music offers to these genres a real musical hybridization. Her lyrics are very poetical and somehow at the frontier between theology and symbolism. « « It seems that through AYIN ALEPH it is a certain Freddie Mercury that is reincarnated in a female version » (Jacques de Pierpont – Classic 21 RTBF – Bruxelles)

Butterfly
Ayin Aleph Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you want to feel my sense of beauty?
Do you try me in a seventh sky?
Do you know to touch my lonely duty
When you said me "let me try"?

I cry,
You wanna be nude on me.
Making together my pleasure.

I fly
And land on your gracious knee,
Swirling nights brought me your treasure.

I keep dazing in an icy rain,
Like an icy princess made by you.
I’m still loving you in a pretty pain,
Like my dizzy love smelling dew.

I still don’t see you under this dawn,
Like a poison fried in my vein.

I still wait for you like a raged fawn,
Slowly making true my holly chain

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ayin Aleph’s song “Butterfly” are open to interpretation, but they seem to express the desire for an intimate connection with someone who can appreciate the beauty and complexity of the singer’s inner world. The first few lines ask the listener if they are willing to explore the singer’s “sense of beauty” and “lonely duty,” perhaps referring to the inner struggles and motivations that drive the singer’s artistic expression. The use of the phrase “seventh sky” suggests a sense of transcendence and a desire to go beyond mundane reality through this connection.

The chorus implies a sexual relationship, with the singer expressing pleasure and ecstasy when intimately connected with the listener. The line “Making together my pleasure” suggests a mutual exchange of pleasure and an openness to exploring new sensations together. The use of the butterfly metaphor further emphasizes the sense of transformation and new experiences that come with this connection.

The final verse hints at a sense of frustration and longing, with the singer feeling hurt and pained by the absence of the listener. They still love them despite the pain, and are waiting for them like a “raged fawn” - a symbol of vulnerability and longing. The use of the phrase “holy chain” implies that this connection is something more than just physical, but has a spiritual or transcendent quality.
