Hey girl, who is that over there?
Is that the goddess of my love?
My heart is stolen and gone,
is this a test of youth?
Hey girl, who is that over there?
Is that the goddess of my love?
My heart is stolen and gone,
is this a test of youth?
Has a garden of dewy roses
draped itself in a saree?
Have your eyes today
gotten stuck on me?
Are you a dream or an imagination?
Oh, don't you know it yet...?
Oho... ho... oho... ho...
Oho... ho... oho... ho...
Hey girl, who is that over there?
Is that the goddess of my love?
My heart is stolen and gone,
is this a test of youth?
Inside the garden of my saree,
you plucked the very first flower.
Leaving nothing behind,
you took me in and drank me whole.
With just your very first glance,
you robbed my heart completely.
And all across my soul,
you painted a fresh white glow.
Were you born from a flower,
or raised in the moonlight?
Did you open a window
into the home of Kamadeva (god of love)?
Oh, don't you realize even now?
Am I not your companion for life?
Oho... ho... oho... ho...
Oho... ho... oho... ho...
Hey girl, who is that over there?
Is that the goddess of my love?
My heart is stolen and gone,
is this a test of youth?
Chuchu chu... chuchu chu...
Chuchu chu... chuchu... chuchu
Chuchu chu... chuchu chu...
Chuchu chu... chuchu... chuchu
Like a pearl inside an oyster shell,
will you fold me in and keep me safe?
To the one lost in your beauty,
will you search and bring him back?
I am getting soaked in your dreams,
will you offer me an umbrella?
I want to sleep for a little while,
will you become my pillow?
Are you an artist of romance,
the hero of a poem,
the Manmatha (god of love) I search for,
or the guardian of my beauty?
Oh, that is enough now!
Shall we join hands as one?
Oho... ho... oho... ho...
Oho... ho... oho... ho...
Hey girl, who is that over there?
Is that the goddess of my love?
My heart is stolen and gone,
is this a test of youth?
Hey, who is that over there?
Is that the hero of my love?
My heart is stolen and gone,
is this a test of youth?
Has a garden of dewy roses
draped itself in a saree?
Have your eyes today
gotten stuck on me?
Are you a dream or an imagination?
Oh, don't you know it yet...?
