Blossoming in the early dawn,
You are the gentle morning sunbeam.
In the destiny of my life,
You are the very first line.
That my heart listens to,
You are the sweet, gentle music.
In the language I speak,
You are the guiding grammar.
You became rain across my whole heart,
You became strength within my soul,
You became my entire life,
You blended with me until we became one.
Ya hey, ya hey,
My shining star,
Ya hey, ya hey,
My angel,
Oh, my angel,
Ya hey, ya hey,
You are not apart from me,
Ya hey, ya hey,
We are not a mistake,
The whispers of the breeze,
And the graceful flow of poetry,
Why do I feel them all because of you?
Even the serious speeches of Marx,
In the eyes of the god of love,
Why do they turn into romance?
From the bitter neem fruits,
The dripping honey,
Why has it turned so sweet?
Every single day,
As a celebration of love,
Is it all for us to live together?
It is you, only you inside me,
The one who gave me a love I had never known.
Melting away in love,
Into the depths of my being,
You came to me, my love...

Overall song meaning

This soulful romantic song expresses an intense and sacred bond between lovers. The lyrics portray the beloved as the essence of life—the first ray of morning sun, the music of the heart, the grammar of speech, and the writer of fate. Love transforms the world around them, making bitter neem fruit taste sweet like honey and turning even complex political ideologies into expressions of romance.
