For my daughter, as she might arrive
I've kept a beautiful glass
Etched with flowers
Carved with art
Filled it with red wine
I smoke a cigarette
Clove scented as I like
I smoke
In this peaceful night
I drink
To the peaceful night
My loved ones are happy
Wherever they are
And on my own
I enjoy the nightly songs
Of faraway life
I like the memories
Of a blue butterfly
A shared coffee
A lovely smile
Its nice to have a friend
Even a distant one
And a family of course
Even a traveling one
Love and respect to all
All over the world
Enjoy your freedom
And be nice to each other
Good night
