 Now, flut -- ter and fly,
 flut -- ter and fly,
 Bear him my heart of
 gold,
 Bid him be brave lit -- tle
 car -- rier dove!
 Bid him be brave and
 bold!

 Tell him that I at my
 spin -- ning wheel, Will
 sing while it turns and
 hums, And
 think all day of his
 love so leal, Un --
 til with the flute he
 comes.

 Now
 fly, flut -- ter and
 fly, Now
 flut -- ter and fly a --
 way, a -- way.
