Ah... Ah... Ah...
Are those two swans on Alagar hill?
They playfully fondle each other with beauty!
As wing joins with wing,
they leap and flutter like little sparrows!
Are those two swans on Alagar hill?
They playfully fondle each other with beauty!
As wing joins with wing,
they leap and flutter like little sparrows!
Are those two swans on Alagar hill?
They playfully fondle each other with beauty!
As wing joins with wing,
they leap and flutter like little sparrows!
Introductions happen down on the ground,
and weddings take place even on running buses!
Introductions happen down on the ground,
and weddings take place even on running buses!
If people have the money to fly in the sky,
childbirths take place right inside airplanes!
If people have the money to fly in the sky,

Are those two swans on Alagar hill?
They playfully fondle each other with beauty!
As wing joins with wing,
they leap and flutter like little sparrows!
Right... Right...
Hang a curtain on the side,
and set a bed in the middle of that hall!
[Chorus: ...]
Hang a curtain on the side,
and set a bed in the middle of that hall!
Ah... this is the right moment, light the lamp!
Let the jasmine bud enjoy its wedding night!
This is the right moment, light the lamp!
Let the jasmine bud enjoy its wedding night!
Are those two swans on Alagar hill?
They playfully fondle each other with beauty!
As wing joins with wing,
they leap and flutter like little sparrows!
Right... Right...
Look at the birds in the forests and hills!
Look at the birds here among stones and thorns!
Look at the birds in the forests and hills!
Look at the birds here among stones and thorns!
From the day the world began until this moment,
who has ever conquered the bond of love?
From the day the world began until this moment,
who has ever conquered the bond of love?
With ripe fruits all over the mango tree,
plump and rich like a sacred verse,
when it matures, won't three hundred squirrels
come pouncing and leaping in excitement?
Are those two swans on Alagar hill?
They playfully fondle each other with beauty!
As wing joins with wing,
they leap and flutter like little sparrows!
