For five or six months, girl, your love
And the jasmine scent have been speaking to my heart.
For five or six months, girl, your love
And the jasmine scent have been speaking to my heart.
The chilly wind strikes and sweeps me off my feet,
On the nights you visit, I am not myself at all.
For five or six months, girl, your love
And the jasmine scent have been speaking to my heart.
The chilly wind strikes and sweeps me off my feet,
On the nights you visit, I am not myself at all.
I may be small, but I am every bit a man, girl!
When it comes to a playful fight, I am a fierce young lion!
Don't bring others to back you up, don't test my depth,
Oh girl, you are still just a beginner!
I am like a energetic young bull bounding about, hey hey hey,
You won't be able to handle it, you're just a tender young girl!
If you really can't manage, I will let you win!
For five or six months, girl, your love
And the jasmine scent have been speaking to my heart.
The chilly wind strikes, hey, and sweeps me off my feet,
On the nights you visit, I am not myself at all.
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey ey!
At this hour when sweet perfume and rosewater mingle,
Speak of love with your eyes!
Playfulness, joy, teasing, and celebration—
Without all these, where is any real peace of mind?
Why, girl, is there this deep longing inside?
Right now, my dear, I need something sweet!
Oh my, will your body be burning hot if I touch you?
For five or six months, girl, your love
And the jasmine scent have been speaking to my heart.
The chilly wind strikes, hey, and sweeps me off my feet,
On the nights you visit, I am not myself at all.
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey ey!
...
Doesn't the waterfall at Courtallam pour down every single day?
Only by you must my deep thirst be quenched!
I checked the almanac and consulted the predictions,
In the wedding month of Thai (mid-Jan to mid-Feb), we must unite as one!
Like a rosebud, touch me gently,
Caress and cuddle me, my tender little guava fruit!
Will this bond between us ever break, now or forever?
For five or six months, girl, your love
And the jasmine scent have been speaking to my heart.
The chilly wind strikes, hey, and sweeps me off my feet,
On the nights you visit, I am not myself at all.
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey ey!
Hey...
