As a contribution to the hypothesis of mixing of three active neutrinos with, at least, one sterile neutrino, we report on a simple $4\times4$ texture whose $3\times3$ part arises from the popular bimaximal texture for three active neutrinos $\nu_e,\nu_\mu,\nu_\tau$, where $c_{12}=1/\sqrt{2} = s_{12}$, $c_{23} = 1/\sqrt{2} = s_{23}$ and $s_{13} = 0$. Such a $3\times 3$ bimaximal texture is perturbed through a rotation in the 14 plane, where $\nu_4$ is the extra neutrino mass state induced by the sterile neutrino $\nu_s$ which becomes responsible for the LSND effect. Then, with $m^2_1 \simeq m^2_2$ we predict that $\sin^2 2\theta_{\rm atm} = {1/2}(1+ c^2_{14}) \sim 0.95$ and $\sin^2 2\theta_{\rm LSND} = {1/2}s^4_{14} \sim 5\times10^{-3}$, and in addition $\Delta m^2_{\rm atm} = \Delta m^2_{32}$ and $\Delta m^2_{\rm LSND} = |\Delta m^2_{41}|$, where $c^2_{14} = \sin^2 2\theta_{\rm sol} \sim 0.9$ and $\Delta m^2_{21} = \Delta m^2_{\rm sol} \sim 10^{-7} {\rm eV}^2$ if e.g. the LOW solar solution is applied.
