Is the intoxication of love
only over on that side?
Look at this side!
It will hold you in a tight embrace
and shower you with endless love!
Is the intoxication of love
only over on that side?
This side has even more
wild fire and passion,
and it will quench your thirst!
Shall I give you not one, not two, but hundreds?
Shall I rock you like a baby in my lap?
Shall I take you close and pamper you?
Brewing something sweeter than wine
like intoxicating nectar,
A water lily...
Pluck the flower, oh flower!
Is the intoxication of love
only over on that side?
Look at this side!
It will hold you in a tight embrace
and shower you with endless love!
Is the intoxication of love
only over on that side?
This side has even more
wild fire and passion,
and it will quench your thirst!
For the young prince, this princess
is the perfect match!
The kingdom of the night
will be ruled upon a bed of roses!
When dusk falls, romantic games begin!
Joy, teasing, and pleasure
will always belong right here!
In the bathing stream,
with our clothes soaked wet,
with burning desire in our hearts,
we shall lock together in passion!
Right here...
Female: True pleasure is right here!
Is the intoxication of love
only over on that side?
Look at this side!
It will hold you in a tight embrace
and shower you with endless love!
