Aathi adi aathi

Oh goodness, girl, oh goodness,
she turned my soul completely upside down!
Yes, knowing it so well,
realizing she is the true beauty,
with the proud glance she gave,
no one could ever survive.
Her sharp look strikes like a hundred arrows,
you will catch the evil eye, my princess,
when everyone praises the beauty of your eyes.
Female: I kept it guarded and safe,
yet you tricked me and stole my heart away.
In the path where an elephant walks,
do innocent ants have to die?
In the path where love and longing arrive,
oh dear, must you and I die like that?
Even if you tell it to stay in one spot,
a fish still has to swim around.
If you ask me to love and live,
I must first die a little inside.
Hey, you will catch the evil eye, my princess,
when everyone praises the beauty of your eyes.
Female: I kept it guarded and safe,
yet you tricked me and stole my heart away.
Oh goodness, girl, oh goodness,
she turned my soul completely upside down!
Oh goodness, girl, oh goodness,
she turned my soul completely upside down!
Yes, knowing it so well,
realizing she is the true beauty,
with the proud glance she gave,
no one could ever survive.
Her sharp look strikes like a hundred arrows,
you will catch the evil eye, my princess,
when everyone praises the beauty of your eyes.
Female: I kept it guarded and safe,
yet you tricked me and stole my heart away.
