Ekka chakkam aagudhae

Things are getting wildly exciting!
Heaven feels right by my side!
All my fears have melted away,
From now on, we're reaching higher and higher!
Things are getting wildly exciting!
Heaven feels right by my side!
All my fears have melted away,
From now on, we're reaching higher and higher!
The rhythm and the tempo keep rising,
Now it's time for non-stop fun and celebration!
Flirting playfully with a goddess of beauty,
This moment brings royal fortune!
Luck and thrill are lifting us up,
Catching eyes everywhere you look!
Let's turn the volume all the way up,
Let's change what hasn't been changed before!
Hey, my great-grandfather danced with joy,
My grandfather danced his heart out too,
And from now on, my grandson will be just like me!
When true love comes together,
It always leads to just one thing:
While mom and dad dance with joy,
I am your rightful bride!
Pour out whatever is left unpoured,
Build whatever hasn't been built,
Climb and conquer what seemed out of reach,
Wish good things even upon the bad!
Stay right on top of everything,
Go all out and strike as you please!
Turn on a rocking folk-beat song,
Put on the music and show them your dance!
If I miss it now, when will it ever come?
This is my golden time!
With eyes locked and hands touching,
All kinds of wonderful things have happened!
Circling all around you,
This girl's heart and mind have become one with yours!
Hey, if you are thirty-six,
And I am forty-six, baby,
If the two of us team up right now,
It's going to be a total blast!
Draw patterns even upon the water,
Light a lamp against the gusting wind,
Build a fortress in the sky,
And dance up in mid-air!
Hey, bring God down here,
And post Him as our guard!
Every single thing is possible, girl,
If you set your heart on it, you will get it!
Hey, from this moment and all around,
It's going to be our rule!
