What a match!
This match between us!
Aha, what a match!
This match between us!
{ In the play
called love } (2)
Marriage is the happy ending!
What a match!
This match between us!
Whatever
I say, you always
speak against it! Once again,
I am telling you, to go see her,
you must not go at all!
Once again
I am telling you, I will
definitely go see her!
When I say no,
it means no!
I will go! / You shouldn't!
I will definitely go!
You shouldn't!
I will definitely go!
Meena, what is this, dear?
{ Let them set up
the wedding canopy,
build the stage,
and let colorful silks
celebrate in joy! } (2)
{ Let the doll of this drama
dance gracefully } (2)
And let me
watch it all
with joyful eyes!
Shall I watch? Shall I listen?
What a match!
This match between us!
In the play called love,
marriage is the happy ending!
Once again,
I am telling you, you shouldn't
go and talk to her!
Once again I am telling you,
I will go and talk to her!
I am firmly telling you,
you must not go
and talk to her!
I am firmly telling you,
I will talk to her!
Oh, you will talk?
Yes, I will!
You really
will talk?
I will talk!
Aha!
Aha!
You shouldn't talk!
I will talk! / You shouldn't!
{ I will talk! / No, you shouldn't! } (2)
{ Let the ship
of family life
sail straight ahead,
after we become
a father and a mother! } (2)
Settling our disputes
is our child's
duty!
Carrying the grandson
around
is the grandfather's joy!
Give me
a precious pearl of a child!
Aha, what
a match, between us
this match!
What a match!
{ Aha, what a match! } (2)
