Ay, iyaiyai
Ay, iyaiyai
Where's my samurai
I've been searching for a man
All across Japan
Just to find, to find my samurai
But still a little shy
Yes I need, I need my samurai
Ay, ay, ay
I'm your little butterfly
Green, black and blue
Make the colours in the sky
Ay, ay, ay, I'm your little butterfly
Green, black and blue
Make the colours in the sky
I've been searching in the woods
And high upon the hills
Just to find, to find my samurai
Someone who won't regret
To keep me in his net
Yes I need, I need my samurai
Ay, ay, ay
I'm your little butterfly
Green, black and blue
Make the colours in the sky
Ay, ay, ay, I'm your little butterfly
Green, black and blue
Make the colors in the sky
Ay, iyaiyai
Ay, iyaiyai
Ay, iyaiyai
Where's my samurai?
Ay, iyaiyai
Ay, iyaiyai
Ay, iyaiyai
Where's my samurai?
Ay, ay, ay
I'm your little butterfly
Green, black and blue
Make the colors in the sky
Ay, ay, ay
I'm your little butterfly
Green, black and blue
Make the colors in the sky
Ay, ay, ay
I'm your little butterfly
Green, black and blue
Make the colors in the sky
Ay, ay, ay
I'm your little butterfly
Green, black and blue
Make the colors in the sky
Ay, iyaiyai
Ay, iyaiyai
Ay, iyaiyai
Where's my samurai?
Ay, iyaiyai
Ay, iyaiyai
Ay, iyaiyai
Where's my samurai?
Ay, ay, ay I'm your little butterfly
Green, black and blue
Make the colors in the sky
The lyrics to DK Smile's song "Butterfly" tell the story of a woman on a quest to find her samurai. She has searched all over Japan, in the woods, and high upon the hills, for a man who is strong yet shy and won't regret keeping her in his net. She emphasizes her desire to find her samurai multiple times throughout the song by exclaiming "Where's my samurai?" She repeats the chorus four times throughout the song, emphasizing her identity as a "little butterfly" with colors of green, black, and blue that make the colors in the sky. Her search for love and companionship is characterized using the imagery of a butterfly whose vibrant colors match the brilliant beauty of the sky.
One potential interpretation of the lyrics is that the samurai symbolizes a strong, dependable partner who is elusive and hard to find, much like the butterfly. The singer yearns deeply for someone who can provide a sense of safety and security, but she also appreciates the beauty and freedom of independence. That duality is illustrated in the song through the imagery of the butterfly, a creature that is simultaneously graceful and fragile.
Another possible interpretation is that the song serves as a commentary on the pressures and expectations placed on women to find a partner, regardless of their own desires and aspirations. The repetition of the question "Where's my samurai?" could be seen as a metaphor for the societal pressure placed on women to settle down and find a husband, even if they are not sure that is what they want. The singer's insistence on finding someone who is both strong and shy may also suggest that she wants someone who is capable of protecting her while also respecting her boundaries and allowing her to be her own person.
Overall, "Butterfly" is a catchy, upbeat song that explores themes of love, companionship, and independence through the lens of a colorful, elusive butterfly.
