We prove that the logarithm of the flow of stochastic differential equations is an element of the free Lie algebra generated by a finite set consisting of vector fields being coefficients of equations. As an application, we directly obtain a formula of the solution of stochastic differential equations given by Castell(1993) without appealing to an expansion for ordinary differential equations given by Strichartz (1987).
