[Verse 1]
Dari celah di jendela yang terbuka
Kupu-kupu putih pun menyelinap
Dengan bebasnya di tengah pelajaran
Terbang menyusuri dinding di kelas

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Ku ingin berada di sebelahmu seperti dia
Agar kau tak menyadari keberadaanku

[Chorus 1]
Cinta pertama Butterfly
Janganlah kamu tangkap
Bagiku kau adalah flower
Oh sedihnya, Butterfly
Walau ada di sini
Diriku (Diriku) tak mampu 'tuk berkata

[Verse 2]
Dengan ekspresi wajah seriusmu yang indah
Dirimu menatap lurus ke depan
Jika hinggap di ikat rambut ponytail-mu
Mungkin akan semerbak shampoo manismu

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Jiwa dan raga ini bagaikan sedang berpisah tempat
Diriku melihatmu dari tempat ini

[Chorus 2]
Cinta pertama Butterfly
Meski terus mengganggu
Tolong jangan usir aku keluar
Sedikit lagi Butterfly
Biarkanku di sampingmu
Dirimu (Dirimu) sangat aku sayangi

[Bridge]
Lihat di atas meja
Sedang melipat sayapnya
Saat bernapas dan berhenti sejenak
Kamu berkedip padaku

[Chorus 3]
Cinta pertama butterfly
Janganlah kamu tangkap
Bagiku kau adalah flower
Oh sedihnya Butterfly
Walau ada di sini
Cintaku (Cintaku) yang jauh

[Chorus 2]
Cinta pertama Butterfly
Meski terus mengganggu
Tolong jangan usir aku keluar
Sedikit lagi Butterfly
Biarkanku di sampingmu
Dirimu (Dirimu) sangat aku sayangi

JKT48 is an Indonesian idol group whose name is derived from its based city of Jakarta and the Japanese idol group AKB48. Formed in 2011, it is the first AKB48 sister group outside Japan and adopts the concept of “idols you can meet”. Fans can attend daily performances at the group’s theater, which was built as a close replica to the AKB48 Theater in Akihabara.

Producer Yasushi Akimoto decided to bring the AKB48 concept to Indonesia because the group had begun to develop a fan base in the country. Indonesia’s growing economy was seen as a potential market by many Japanese companies, and Akimoto established a franchising partnership with Dentsu Media Group Indonesia to replicate the AKB48 business model. Dentsu Media Group Indonesia then cooperate with the country’s largest media conglomerate Global Mediacom (MNC Media), the southeast Asia’s largest and most integrated media group as JKT48 official media partner.

While JKT48 does not restrict membership by nationality, applicants must be residents of Indonesia. The group has 72 (as of June 2014) members and released its first studio album Heavy Rotation on 16 February 2013 via Hits Records, a division of MNC subsidiary PT Star Media Nusantara. It performs songs by AKB48 and other sister groups that are translated into Indonesian.
