…………………………
Like a breeze through the window,
You came into my heart.
Like a streak of lightning,
Thoughts of you strike me.
Your address,
You need not give me.
Your fragrance alone is enough.
Entrancing my eyes,
Right there, my love,
My breath steals away.
{Raising my pulse,
Are you walking away... are you leaving?
Like a spark,
Raising my longing,
Are you walking away, are you leaving?
Oh beauty... eh..eh..eh....} (2)
Oh heart, my heart,
It beats just for you..ehh
All the desires I wish to share,
Will you grant them if I ask?
Because of you, within me,
Something inexplicable is happening..eh...
Millions of quests in your life,
Shall I touch and gather them for you?
{Raising my pulse,
Are you walking away... are you leaving?
Like a spark,
Raising my longing,
Are you walking away, are you leaving?
Oh beauty... eh..eh..eh....} (2)
I wanna hold you close to me
Everyday
About me, you...
Already know yourself.
No addresses are needed,
It will be understood in dreams.
Your lovein is my ecstasy baby
Blindfolding my eyes, playing blind man's buff,
Playful butterfly,
Flying around you,
The whole world comes into view.
I wanna hold you close to me
Everyday
Do you understand? Do you realize, sweet fruit?
Shall I tie the knot with you?
Oh dew, oh nectar!
Your lovein is my ecstasy baby
Line by line, poem by poem,
Shall I write, my gentle deer?
It is you whom I shall hold onto!
Your address,
You need not give me.
Your fragrance alone is enough.
Entrancing my eyes,
Right there, my love,
My breath steals away.
{Raising my pulse,
Are you walking away... are you leaving?
Like a spark,
Raising my longing,
Are you walking away, are you leaving?
Oh beauty... eh..eh..eh....} (2)

The protagonist describes how the beloved's sudden presence enters his heart like a cool breeze through an open window and strikes like lightning.
