At the doorway of these painted, flower-like eyes,
who was it that came and stood?
Touching this sweet bundle of sugarcane,
who came to melt with love?
Who was it that stood there?
Who was it that came?
As the gentle breeze ushered him in,
he arrived in a golden chariot!
As the gentle breeze ushered him in,
he arrived in a golden chariot!
With a gleaming smile, he drew near;
the one who stood by me is mine!
He is my king, who gave me a place in his heart!
At the doorway of these painted, flower-like eyes,
he is the one who stood!
Touching this sweet bundle of sugarcane,
the one who melted with love is my man!
The one who stood there is truly mine!
In handsome charm, was he a match for poet Kamban's son?
Did he walk side by side with him?
In the art of embracing this silken body,
is he fully skilled and masterly?
Keeping only you close by his side,
is he the one who revolves around you each day?
Rehearsing now what he was taught,
is he a master of Muthamizh (the three classical Tamil arts of poetry, music, and drama)?
Is he an expert who knows every art,
or does he only know the art of love?
At the doorway of these painted, flower-like eyes,
who was it that came and stood?
Touching this sweet bundle of sugarcane,
who came to melt with love?
Shall I call him the vision within my dark eyes?
Is that what I should call him?
Or should my heart beat with longing, calling this fresh golden treasure
by the name of Kannan (Krishna)?
In the gleaming glance of his eyes, is he
the king of poets? Or,
having surrendered himself and hidden me within his embrace,
is he a colorful, fresh blossom?
His heart is not merely a flower—
he is the one who fills my entire soul!
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh oh oh oh
Ho-ho-oh oh-oh-oh ho oh-oh-oh
At the doorway of these painted, flower-like eyes,
he is the one who stood!
Touching this sweet bundle of sugarcane,
the one who melted with love is my man!
The one who stood there is truly mine!
