Lyrics:
There are times when I stand by a mirror
To take a close look at myself
And the face that I see - Looking right back at me
Wishes it was someone else
But there is - only one you
A fragment of light from above
That would joyfully serve and cling to Hashem
If only it knew - the depth of His love
Time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly
Show yourself and the world just how very high
You can fly, you can soar - once you unlock the door
And Hashem will be there at your side - And Hashem will be there at your side
There are times when I hear music playing
But it’s more a lament than a song
I’m so used to the pain - of its tragic refrain
That whispers you don’t belong
But there is - only one you
A Neshama most precious and sweet
Our lives are a chorus - In praise of Hashem
And when your voice is missing - The song’s incomplete
Chorus
I’ve been told every soul sent from heaven
Has its very own mountain to climb
Though some do prevail - Many stumble and fail
And I know not which fate will be mine
But there is - only one you
With a calling of your very own
The road may be long - a test of the heart
But you’ll never, no never - have to walk it alone
Time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly
Show yourself and the world just how very high
You can fly, you can soar - once you unlock the door
And Hashem will be there at your side - Yes - He’ll always be there at our side
I am not Jewish but I soooo wish I was and these songs just make me love the people of G..D to the max.
You are a wonderful and humble human being gd bless you
Just be yourself
Jesaja 56:6 -8
Please pray for Israel...

Rabbi Wallersrein was a very precious soul and we all miss him very much
This song is so soft and lovely. We are so lucky to have a such loving and forgiving God. This song expresses that to me ❤
I have watched this music video so many times since first introduced to it. The voices and lyrics are incredible. I cry every time I listen to it. So well done with a most meaningful message. I wish I would have had the privilege to know Rabbi Wallerstein.
Thank you!! He was indeed a very special man.
Rabbi Wallerstien was my teacher in 6th grade when I heard that he had passed I was very sad. This song is a beautiful tribute to him Z”L
Shulem Lemmer never fails to excel. A nice tribute.
Shulem is able to make anyone feel. What a beautiful duet. ♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️
Incredible voice! Stunning words!! Praise Hashem!!! Time to leave your cocoon my dear butterfly! Hope to see them in person performing this majestic piece…..
This is really lovely; the words, the melody, and the little girl! The message is a prize.🥰🥰
A masterpiece! brings into tears. thank you so much for sharing this!🙏
When I see troubled souls, I think of them as being in a cocoon. I have seen many come out as butterflies. Different from how they were expected to be - but more beautiful and creative than what others had expected them to be.
Thank you Abie for this song. It reminds me of the days you sang along with Moshe Yess on the Journey's tapes.
Thank you Abie for bringing in Shulem's voice and soul.
Hashem is there for us... especially if we have been blessed with SIBLINGS. So often I have seen younger siblings bring joy to the older siblings who helped care for the little one years before.
WOW! As only Abie Rottenberg can write. Like the song 'Who am I' was for disabled, this song touches so many in this generation that are struggling to find themselves in this confusing world. Absolutely gorgeous. Shulem and Abie's voices blend together so well.
BEAUUUUUTIFUL ! And my FAVVVVV R ZECHARIAH WALLERSTEIN ZT'L (Of BLESSSSSED MEMORY !!!!! ✡️🎶🦋
Wow mind-blowing!! What a fantastic tribute to our dear Rabbi Wallerstein! This was his essence and who could do this justice but the undisputed stars Abie and Shulem!! Impossible to listen to without having tears rolling down your cheeks!
Every time I watch this I can’t help but cry ❤ this is such a beautiful song that perfectly commemorates Rabbi Wallerstien Z”tl and his message to the world 😢🦋❤️🔥
wow wow wow!!! im all tears!! i miss rabbi wallerstein... thank you so much for this wonderful song!!
SHULEM : YOU ARE THE BEST , AND THE BEST IN THE WORLD !!!!
I wish some day that i could hear Lemmer live.
I dont know this rabbi, but i do know that Lemmers voice is magnificent beyond compare. I could listen to him sing all the time. Please let me know if he has made a collection of hebrew and yiddish songs that i can hear. His range is so amazing. And his voice never seems to be strained. Never! No matter how high or low the note is he hits it with precision and beauty.

Beautiful song and video. Missing Rabbi Wallerstein. Such a comfort to see a masterpiece including women these days.
Just stunning, the lesson, the heavenly voices, this song is a gift from hashem
You've mad me cry with another absolutely beautiful song. Thank you to you both u. Hashem.
It was 2006 when I held the first meeting for the "Esthers". I told the story about the caterpillar that becomes a butterfly.
But it requires daring to lean on HaShem alone! Not on others and not on yourself. It requires complete surrender.
Not my will but Yours! This song is beautiful! Would love to use it when I make a podcast. Reading from the Torah, encouraging and praying, etc.
Gut - erev - Shabbos.
What a truly beautiful and uplifting song!
I absolutely love the words and glorious melody. A divine tribute to Rabbi Wallerstein.
So exquisitely sung by dear Shulem and Abie.

Wow! Such a beautiful & moving song, brings me to tears each time I hear it. The message is so powerful & comforting. How I miss our Rabbi Wallerstein - This is such a beautiful & poignant tribute to the work that he did. I feel Rabbi Wallerstein is still continuing his work from on High. As someone who was helped by Rabbi Wallerstein, I am humbled & grateful to Ohr Naava, Abie Rotenberg & Shulem Lemmer for putting this song out. Thank you so much! 🦋 Debbie Weiner
Wow! What a beautiful song, lyric, melody and harmony setting! 💯👏💛
VERSE 1:
There are times when I stand by a mirror
to take a close look at myself,
and the face that I see, looking right back at me
wishes it was someone else.
But there is only one you
a fragment of light from above,
that would joyfully serve and cling to Hashem
if only it knew the depth of His love.
CHORUS 1:
Time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly
show yourself and the world just how very high
you can fly, you can soar, once you unlock the door,
and Hashem will be there at your side
and Hashem will be there at your side.
VERSE 2:
There are times when I hear music playing
but it’s more a lament than a song,
I’m so used to the pain of its tragic refrain
that whispers “You don’t belong”.
But there is only one you
a Neshoma most precious and sweet.
Our lives are a chorus in praise of Hashem
and when your voice is missing, the song’s incomplete.
CHORUS 2:
It’s time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly
show yourself and the world just how very high
you can fly, you can soar, once you unlock the door,
and Hashem will be there at your side
and Hashem will be there at your side.
VERSE 3:
I’ve been told every soul sent from heaven
has its very own mountain to climb;
though some do prevail, many stumble and fail
and I know not which fate will be mine.
But there is only one you
with a calling of your very own;
the road may be long, a test of the heart
but you’ll never, no, never, have to walk it alone.
CHORUS 3:
Time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly
show yourself and the world just how very high
you can fly, you can soar, once you unlock the door,
and Hashem will be there at your side
yes, He’ll always be there at our side.
