lyrics

little fly
thy summers play
my thoughtless hand
has brushed away

am not i
a man like thee
and aren't not thou
a man like me

so i laugh
and drink and sing
till some blind hand
has brushed my wing

if thought is life
and strength and breath
then the thought
of life is death

then am i
a happy fly
if i live
or if i die?
