Oh my, inside me,
A wondrous thought comes to mind.
Oh my, inside me,
A wondrous thought comes to mind.
The face reflected in the water
Rippled away with the waves.
But the face etched in my heart
Stayed firm like a statue.
The face etched in my heart
Stayed firm like a statue.
Oh my, inside me,
A wondrous thought comes to mind.
Goodness, is it fire?
Why is the river water burning hot?
Goodness, is it fire?
Why is the river water burning hot?
If the heat is only on the body,
Water can cool it down.
If the heat is only on the body,
Water can cool it down.
If the heart burns with longing,
Who can soothe it?
If the heart burns with longing,
Who can soothe it?
Goodness, is it fire?
Why is the river water burning hot?
The fish splashing in the stream
Only nibbles at the feet.
The fish splashing in the stream
Only nibbles at the feet.
The fish leaping inside the heart,
The fish leaping inside the heart,
Bites deep within, my dear.
There is medicine for a wound,
And a string to tie a bandage.
There is medicine for a wound,
And a string to tie a bandage.
There is someone ready to yield to love,
And feet ready to wear the wedding toe-rings.
There is someone ready to yield to love,
And feet ready to wear the wedding toe-rings.
Oh my, inside me,
A wondrous thought comes to mind.
Embracing both its banks,
This rushing flood flows on.
Embracing both its banks,
This rushing flood flows on.
Unable to see the other shore,
This heart frets and yearns.
If you come seeking with loving care,
Won't this shore understand?
If you come seeking with loving care,
Won't this shore understand?
For the swift river Kaveri,
Doesn't she know the wavy ocean?
Goodness, is it fire?
Why is the river water burning hot?
Making me forget myself,
What a dizzying trance this is!
The heart I held tight and guarded
Has broken free and flies away!
What kind of life was this before?
Now a deep longing has surrounded me.
What kind of life was this before?
Now a deep longing has surrounded me.
Breaking past every obstacle,
My heart wells up and overflows!
Oh my, inside me,
A wondrous thought comes to mind.
(Male): Goodness, is it fire?
Why is the river water burning hot?
