A piece of the bright moon,
seeing it up close,
my whole body caught fire!
Those two red foxes
got into my chest,
and devoured this good guy!
Ho ho, Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
A beauty who steals with a smile,
a beauty who caresses the heart!
Chikkiri Chikkiri
Pecking at me and scratching a line,
Chikkiri Chikkiri
with eyes that freeze my mustache!
Chikkiri Chikkiri
...
Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
Oh, I came to sing your praise!
A piece of the bright moon,
seeing it up close,
my whole body caught fire!
In a burst of anger, a nose ring,
your nose is a burning flame of teakwood!
If you are a fish, I am a kingfisher!
Your feet are what catch my gaze!
Did God make your body
out of pure honey?
Did the remaining drops spill and become this earth?
The path you walk is just dust,
but after you pass, it sparkles like diamonds!
Tell me "enough" and let me go, only then will I survive!
Ho ho, Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
A beauty who steals with a smile,
a beauty who caresses the heart!
A piece of the bright moon,
seeing it up close,
my whole body caught fire!
Those two red foxes
got into my chest,
and devoured this good guy!
Thanthana nanaa thar ranthanaanaanaa
Thar ranthanaanaanaa thar ranthanaanaa
Thanthana nanaa thar ranthanaanaanaa
Thar ranthanaanaanaa naa naa naa naa
This isn't gold, it's a flower ball,
if you are a flower, I will protect you!
Speak up and turn this lie into truth,
in disguise, I have come as a honeybee!
All my eyes see is you,
my mouth is watering for you,
a wild mountain stream has crossed every line!
You are a pearl of a girl who bumped into me,
and my mind is like a thorny jungle.
Give me a teasing bite and pamper me, I will gladly bear it!
Ho ho, Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
A beauty who steals with a smile,
a beauty who caresses the heart!
A piece of the bright moon,
seeing it up close,
my whole body caught fire!
Those two red foxes
got into my chest,
and devoured this good guy!
Ho ho, Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
A beauty who steals with a smile,
a beauty who caresses the heart!
Chikkiri Chikkiri
Pecking at me and scratching a line,
Chikkiri Chikkiri Chikkiri
with eyes that freeze my mustache!
