Country Butterfly

I tried translating the song Paru-Parung Bukid into English but I find Mr. R.Verzola's better. 

English Translation of "Paru-Parung Bukid" by Roberto Verzola

I just saw a butterfly,

flitting and floating by;

waiting by the main trail,

fluttering in the air.

Sari wrapped around her,

sleeves as wide as my palm,

Skirt’s a trifle oversized,

ends dragging on the ground.

-

Her hair held with a pin

Oh!

Her hand twirling a comb

Oh!

Decorated half-slip,

drawing others to peep.

Then she faces the stage,

ogling her own image,

She would come and tease us,

hips swaying like a duck.
