Come, come, come, ah...
My rose,
peeking out from my shirt pocket,
my sweet rose!
Telling the spinning earth to stop,
let us dance!
Why wait any longer? Give me a kiss
and kill me with love!
Come, come, come, ah...
My rose,
peeking out from my shirt pocket,
my handsome prince!
Girl, did Brahma
make you from flowers back then,
or from a sweet fire?
A little from flowers, a little from fire—
I am made of both, my dear!
Ask me for whatever you want!
Sweet little fights sparked
by playful glances—that is what I want!
What else would I ask for?
Lock eyes and spar with me!
Just like with a little child,
I feel like pampering you,
I want to pinch your cheeks!
Come to me, my love, come!
Come, come, come, ah...
My rose,
peeking out from my shirt pocket,
my sweet rose!
In a single word,
you say so many things all at once!
How do you do this magic?
In a single look,
you convey the meaning of countless glances!
That is just the way I learned it!
An earth of our very own,
a sky of our very own,
with just you and me there,
we can live happily!
With a girl like me,
and a sweet trouble like you,
I have no other desires!
Come to me, my love, come...
Come, come, come, ah...
My rose,
peeking out from my shirt pocket,
my sweet rose!
Telling the spinning earth to stop,
let us dance!
Why wait any longer? Give me a kiss
and kill me with love!
Come, come, come, ah...
My rose,
peeking out from my shirt pocket,
my sweet rose!
