Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby
To lay a hand on you...
O fair-skinned girl,
O fiery girl,
where can I trust myself to touch you?
Has Eve been born again,
shedding her clothes,
just to torment me?
Oh, her voluptuous body,
and the lush curves on it,
bursting against her dress!
Hey fleshy moon, you make me lose my balance...
Yehi ye, yehi ye ye
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby
To lay a hand on you...
O fair-skinned girl,
O fiery girl,
where can I trust myself to touch you?
Don't lock it up, don't lock it up,
don't lock away the whole world inside your clothes!
Don't show it, don't show it,
don't reveal the unseen parts!
Inside a man,
the sleeping beast
opens its eyes and stares.
It demands flesh,
it demands a heart,
it keeps asking for all sorts of things!
I have no desire for this,
no woman has any trouble,
but since youth wants what it wants,
it dances wild—so dance along...
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby
To lay a hand on you...
O fair-skinned girl,
O fiery girl,
where can I trust myself to touch you?
If you look at a woman simply as a woman,
every single woman
is a feast!
If chastity does not stand in the way,
Kamathuppal (the book of love and desire)
is a fresh medicine!
Some beauties' bodies
are like a foreign land;
try to enter, and they lash out!
Some beauties' bodies
are like a shirt pocket;
hands slip into them all the time!
How does one win over a young woman?
How can one say this out loud?
Even an invincible hero
is left totally shaken here...
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby
To lay a hand on you...
O fair-skinned girl,
O fiery girl,
where can I trust myself to touch you?
