Sweetheart, sweet as jaggery candy,
My cute little darling!

Male: If we talk and come together,
We can bond so deeply!
I'm hanging on the bus footboard, girl,
I can't even see you properly!
Just lean out a little and glance outside,
Girl, I'm crying out as my arms ache!
Sassy and teasing,
Sassy and teasing,
You show it in your look, girl!
