Oh my, oh my!
There goes a girl in her saree!
Right before my eyes,
a flash of lightning streaks past!
She teases with subtle signs,
and I lost myself, feeling bittersweet.
She lights a fire in me,
and I burned softly in its warmth.
Like a gentle breeze among flowers,
she spreads a sweet fragrance.
Playfully teasing me,
she puts on a show.
Like a gentle breeze among flowers,
she spreads a sweet fragrance.
Playfully teasing me,
she puts on a show.
Oh my, oh my!
There goes a girl in her saree!
Right before my eyes,
a flash of lightning streaks past!
A saree from a golden loom,
a necklace set with silver stones,
shall I buy and bring them to you?
Shall I see you wear them?
Around your graceful, conch-shaped neck,
like a single pearl bead,
shall I transform,
and hold close to you?
Making a rope from my breath,
shall I make a swing for you?
Like a gentle breeze blowing by,
shall I come speak with you?
To tell you what is in my heart,
my chest is pounding,
yet when you come near, words fail me.
When I try to shout out loud,
a wheel spins tight in my throat.
Like a gentle breeze among flowers,
she spreads a sweet fragrance.
Playfully teasing me,
she puts on a show.
Oh my, oh my!
There goes a girl in her saree!
Like foam that gathers
along the edge of the lake water,
I gather all my longing,
and yearn to see you.
With a sly, knowing smile,
she softly torments me as she walks away,
leaving me all confused,
wondering what it all means.
I lost all track of time,
thinking only of you, my girl.
Without knowing its depth,
I sowed your memory deep inside me.
Before I could say
all that I wished to say,
a waterfall rushes inside me.
Ten times over,
I leaped with joy,
yet she troubles me with her beauty!
Like a gentle breeze among flowers,
she spreads a sweet fragrance.
Playfully teasing me,
she puts on a show.
Oh my, oh my!
There goes a girl in her saree!
Right before my eyes,
a flash of lightning streaks past!
She teases with subtle signs,
and I forgot myself,
feeling bittersweet.
She lights a fire in me,
and I caught fire,
burning with tender warmth.
Like a gentle breeze among flowers,
she spreads a sweet fragrance.
Playfully teasing me,
she puts on a show.
Like a gentle breeze among flowers,
she spreads a sweet fragrance.
Playfully teasing me,
she puts on a show.
