My lovely parrot... my golden parrot...
Why do you have any doubt, my dear?
My lovely parrot... my golden parrot...
Why do you have any doubt, my dear?
Little cuckoo, darling cuckoo,
My body belongs only to you, my dear!
Dance with me like the Courtallam waterfalls!
Sing with me like the rhythmic drum!
Dance with me like the Courtallam waterfalls!
Sing with me like the rhythmic drum!
My lovely parrot... my golden parrot...

Ha ha ha
Standing sprightly in your simple skirt, girl,
This entire neighborhood can't take its eyes off you!
Standing sprightly in your simple skirt, girl,
This entire neighborhood can't take its eyes off you!
Rosy like a tomato, your golden skin is sweet like a papaya!
Oh my, rosy like a tomato, your golden skin is sweet like a papaya!
I am your partner, a working man singing for you!
In the middle of our happiness, why should there be any doubt?
No, no, please do not have any...
My lovely parrot... my golden parrot...
Why do you have any doubt, my dear?
Little cuckoo, darling cuckoo,
My body belongs only to you, oh my...
The right time for our music show has finally come!
If I just lay a hand on you, oh boy, so many rhythms start drumming!
Hey girl, the right time for our music show has finally come!
If I just lay a hand on you, oh boy, so many rhythms start drumming!
Swirling around in a brand-new dress, my shining gem!
Swirling around in a brand-new dress, my shining gem!
Coming close to share sweet kisses, my string of pearls!
In the middle of our happiness, why should there be any doubt?
No, no, please do not have any!
My lovely parrot... my golden parrot...
Why do you have any doubt, my dear?
Little cuckoo, darling cuckoo,
My body belongs only to you, my dear!
Dance with me like the Courtallam waterfalls!
Sing with me like the rhythmic drum!
Dance with me like the Courtallam waterfalls!
Sing with me like the rhythmic drum!
My lovely parrot... my golden parrot...
Why do you have any doubt, my dear?
