Hey, my sweet young girl,
My soul is throbbing right in my eyes.
Hey, my sweet young girl,
My soul is throbbing right in my eyes.
A flower that has blossomed,
It isn't right to hide it away.
Oh, my dear darling,
Let us settle this once and for all today!
If you ask me in private,
I will give it all to you, one by one.
Hey, my sweet young girl,
My soul is throbbing right in my eyes.
I will gently tap your cheek,
And drip drops of honey into your ear.
Female: I will playfully scold you,
End our lovers' sulk, and cling close to you.
On the bed, if two souls
Throb with longing, what is wrong with that?
O ocean, if the sun
Drinks you up, what is wrong with that?
Female: Offering your youth, you melted,
And drank my very life breath through my lips.
Haha...
Hey, my sweet young girl,
My soul is throbbing right in my eyes.
Hey, my sweet young girl,
My soul is throbbing right in my eyes.
A flower that has blossomed,
It isn't right to hide it away.
Oh, my dear darling,
Let us settle this once and for all today!
If you ask me in private,
I will give it all to you, one by one.
Hey, my sweet young girl,
My soul is throbbing right in my eyes.
Aah... aah...
Aah... aah...
Both: Aah... aah...
You softly closed the door,
And searched for treasure like a miser.
Male: You hid the treasure inside your saree,
I dug like a cat, and you ran away.
O Manmatha (god of love), if your clouds
Shower down rain, what is wrong with that?
Male: Ah haan
Female: If this whole earth gets drenched
In the downpour, what is wrong with that?
Male: Let our desires grow longer day after day,
And let my angel rule over me too.
Hey, my sweet young girl,
My soul is throbbing right in my eyes.
Oh oh oh
Hey, my sweet young girl,
My soul is throbbing right in my eyes.
A flower that has blossomed,
It isn't right to hide it away.
Oh, my dear darling,
Let us settle this once and for all today!
If you ask me in private,
I will give it all to you, one by one.
Hey, my sweet young girl,
My soul is throbbing right in my eyes.
