O weaver bird,
Hey waterfall from the sky,
Embracing your feet time and time again,
I obtained a boon and came into this birth.
O weaver bird,
Hey waterfall from the sky,
Embracing your feet time and time again,
I obtained a boon and came into this birth.
You stare at me with wide eyes,
You sway your hair bun,
And as you come closer and closer,
You are killing me.
You make me stand still and gaze,
You ask me things too,
By making gestures with your eyes,
You are killing me.
Lighter than the wind, my body...
Its weight has diminished.
Compared to yesterday, life...
Has now become so sweet.
O weaver bird,
Hey waterfall from the sky,
Embracing your feet time and time again,
I obtained a boon and came into this birth.
I am talking with you,
I am talking about you,
I don't know anything else,
Now I understand nothing else.
I am walking with you,
I am walking around you,
Nothing else comes to mind,
Now I am no longer myself.
So many, many stars...
Shouldn't we count them all?
All that we dreamed in imagination,
We must live and show it.
I created it so beautifully for you, my life,
It is the relation that gives us a blessing.
O weaver bird,
Hey waterfall from the sky,
Embracing your feet time and time again,
I obtained a boon and came into this birth.
Whichever side you touch,
Sugar candy tastes sweet,
Just like that, your memory
Dwells inside my heart.
Whatever you say,
I feel like listening to it,
What can I say, this bond
Is needed for a lifetime.
Everything that is deep inside your heart,
I will read right in your eyes.
Before you come and ask me,
I will place it in your hands.
Truly, life is beautiful,
From now on, I will be your shadow.
O weaver bird,
Hey waterfall from the sky,
Embracing your feet time and time again,
I obtained a boon and came into this birth.
You stare at me with wide eyes,
You sway your hair bun,
Female: By making gestures with your eyes,
You are killing me.
Lighter than the wind, my body...
Its weight has diminished.
Compared to yesterday, life...
Has now become so sweet.
O weaver bird,
Hey waterfall from the sky,
Male: Embracing your feet time and time again,
I obtained a boon and came into this birth.
