I saw you inside the glass cubicle,
and an endless love…
I found!
With a ruler, girl,
I measured and admired you.
Half-baked just like you,
I was amazed at myself.
Calling you "hey girl, come and go",
even when addressing you so casually,
you burned me with your third-eye glare.
Like a stick-on bindi,
I surrendered at your feet every day.
To interlock with your fingers,
my flower-soft fingers
are waiting right here.
Just to reach your heart,
I grew up, measured to size.
In the parting of my hair,
the touch of your hand
To live out the rest of my days in your gentle gaze,
I broke past every boundary and grew.
I saw you inside the glass cubicle,
and an endless love…
I found!
I saw you inside the glass cubicle,
and an endless love…
I saw with my own eyes!
I am a Complan boy,
and you are a Cerelac girl.
Trying to charm the king like in Mario,
she mapped out a route like Dora and Boots.
Delivering a Stunner like Stone Cold,
I dusted powder on the Powerpuff Girl.
Adding poetic sweet talk like "my darling deer",
I scolded her, "You cursed little donkey!"
Sa sa sa… sa ga ri ga ma ri sa
Ni ni ni ni sa ga ri ma sa ri ga sa
Sa sa sa… sa ga ri ga ma ri sa
Sa pa pa paa… ma ma ga ma ma maa
Sa sa sa… sa ga ri ga ma ri sa
Ni ni ni ni sa ga ri ma sa ri ga sa
Sa sa sa… sa ga ri ga ma ri sa
Sa pa pa paa… ma ma ga ma ma maa
In the evening hours,
to the ringing chime of your Ladybird cycle,
my Royal Enfield engine of a
heart
beats fast and takes flight…
In the dark rain of your hair,
under the lightning flash of a hairpin,
the whispering scent of jasmine
intoxicates my mind…
Wanting to look at your face,
when I glance at the clock,
the two hands clash with each other
and stand in conflict.
When the urge strikes me
to write my first poem,
half an hour turns into complete confusion.
Shrinking a little… growing a little,
every moment feels so sweet.
Inside the glass cubicle,
an endless love…
To interlock with your fingers,
my flower-soft fingers
are waiting right here, aren't they?
Just to reach your heart,
I grew up, measured to size.
In the parting of my hair,
the prints of your hand
are resting right there, aren't they?
To live out the rest of my days in your gentle gaze,
I broke past every barrier and grew.
With a ruler, girl,
I measured and admired you.
Half-baked just like you,
I was amazed at myself.
Calling you "hey girl, come and go",
even when addressing you so casually,
you burned me with your third-eye glare.
Like a stick-on bindi,
I surrendered at your feet every single day…
Oh, go on, girl…
I am a Complan boy,
and you are a Cerelac girl.
Trying to charm the king like in Mario,
she mapped out a route like Dora and Boots.
Delivering a Stunner like Stone Cold,
I dusted powder on the Powerpuff Girl.
Adding poetic sweet talk like "my darling deer",
I scolded her, "You cursed little donkey!"
