Samba of White Moth

You loved colourful flowers so much
That you fluttered on them like a butterfly.
And giving dreams to your fans
You didnt promise your heart to anybody
 
But bright-red, fiery flower
You wanted to pick, once
And again like a white moth
You flew on its shine.
Only it won't be easy
The friendship of flame and the moth
 
Samba of white moth
Near the open flame
It's likely to burn the thin wings
It's better to live less, but without sadness
Like white moths
And just fly close to earth
 
It's necessary to live definitely well
Choosing what the heart likes
Fire burned the moth, though not strongly
And the moth loved it, though not long
Really, it wasn't the easy one
The friendship of flame and the moth
 
Samba of white moth

It's likely to burn the thin wings
It's better to live less, but without sadness
Like white moths
And just fly close to earth

Some suggestions:
bright colours => colorful flowers
As if the thin wings weren't burned => It’s likely to burn the thin wings
to live less, yes without sadness => to live less, but without sadness
Like white butterflies => To live like white moths
And fly to self, close to earth => And just to fly close to earth
In general, didn't go easy => Really, it wasn’t the easy one

Also this
Fire burned the moth, though not strongly
And the moth loved it, though not long
is a good interpretation, but it seems kind of too literal and the allusion of the couple is lost.

Thanks a lot for suggestions, I will edit the translation. It's sometimes hard to think like a native.

I think I understood the allusion but couldn't know how to represent it else. I will think on it.
