Because the heavy rain beat down on us,
a shiver ran through me!
Female: What does it matter, my love? Hold me gently,
our hearts have become one!
As the drifting clouds pour rain down,
Female: from head to toe, everything is soaked wet!
Male: Warmth has risen, and the mood has arrived!
Because the heavy rain beat down on us,
a shiver ran through me!
Male: I am right here, my love, hold me gently,
our hearts have become one!
When your drenched saree shows off your beauty,
if I look closely, it is over—I start sighing deeply!
Female: Even if I just stay quiet, you stir up heat and sing,
my mind wandered off, and now something has happened to me!
Tell me what happened—it is just the trouble of youth!
Female: Do you not know it? Can you not understand without being told?
Do you not know it? Can you not understand without being told?
Because the heavy rain beat down on us,
a shiver ran through me!
Female: What does it matter, my love? Hold me gently,
our hearts have become one!
As the drifting clouds pour rain down,
Female: from head to toe, everything is soaked wet!
Male: Warmth has risen, and the mood has arrived!
Because the heavy rain beat down on us,
a shiver ran through me!
Male: I am right here, my love, hold me gently,
our hearts have become one!
Hey, when my lover's hand touches me,
this heart flutters away like a bird!
If you touch me here and there,
my body blossoms like a honeyed bud!
Lips brushing against lips—that touch is romance itself!
The love I have for you smells like fresh screwpine flowers!
Female: Isn't your body mine?
Take this pure sweet honey yourself!
I will not touch you all the time,
but if I do, I will not let you pull away!
I will not touch you all the time,
but if I do, I will not let you pull away!
Because the heavy rain beat down on us,
a shiver ran through me!
Male: I am right here, my love, hold me gently,
our hearts have become one!
As the drifting clouds pour rain down,
Male: from head to toe, everything is soaked wet!
Female: Warmth has risen, and the mood has arrived!
