What did you do to me, girl?
What on earth did you do to me, girl?
Like I was a little child,
you made me stand helpless and worked your magic on me!
What did you do to me, girl?
What on earth did you do to me, girl?
Like I was a little child,
you made me stand helpless and worked your magic on me!
The moment I saw you, how did love
find its way into me?
I asked my own heart, girl.
Just as lovingly as I looked at you today,
with my affectionate heart,
I will look at you forever, girl.
In every single second
spent right by your side,
I completely lost myself, girl.
What did you do to me, girl?
What on earth did you do to me, girl?
Like I was a little child,
you made me stand helpless and worked your magic on me!
How many suns,
how many moons,
do you hold in your eyes when you look at me?
So many flashes of lightning,
so much sweet ache,
you pour into my heart and captivate me!
You slay me, you slay me,
slay me with your eyes!
You scoop me up, you scoop me up,
sweep me away with your love!
The moment I saw you,
I could no longer find myself.
Whatever happened to me,
I couldn't understand at all.
The moment your gaze brushed against me,
I was pierced with holes like a sieve, girl!
What did you do to me, girl?
What on earth did you do to me, girl?
Like I was a little child,
you made me stand helpless and worked your magic on me!
That I would meet you right here,
at this exact hour,
no astrology ever predicted, girl!
Seeing all your beauty
from so very close,
I just couldn't handle it, girl!
Even my Rahu Kalam (inauspicious time),
into an auspicious moment,
she turned it all around, girl!
What did you do to me, girl?
What on earth did you do to me, girl?
Like I was a little child,
you made me stand helpless and worked your magic on me!
Thana nana thana nana
Thana nana thana nana naa
You stay, you stay,
filling up all of my heart!
I roam, I roam,
roaming all around the town!
This night needs to stretch a little longer,
that sun needs to sleep a little more,
Lies you have never seen or heard before,
I need to tell you a hundred of them, girl!
What did you do to me, girl?
What on earth did you do to me, girl?
Like I was a little child,
you made me stand helpless and worked your magic on me!
The moment I saw you, how did love
find its way into me?
I asked my own heart, girl.
Just as lovingly as I looked at you today,
with my affectionate heart,
I will look at you forever, girl.
In every single second
spent right by your side,
I completely lost myself, girl.
What did you do to me, girl?
What on earth did you do to me, girl?
Like I was a little child,
you made me stand helpless and worked your magic on me!
What did you do to me, girl?
What on earth did you do to me, girl?
Like I was a little child,
you made me stand helpless and worked your magic on me!
