What should I say? What should I ask?
Let our kisses tell, my dear.
What should I say? What should I ask?
Let our kisses tell, my dear.
A festive day, a wedding day, our very first day,
You can offer it just as your heart desires.
One day, two days, I will give you many days,
And you can lose yourself in them for a long time.
What should I say? What should I ask?
Let our kisses tell, my dear.
In this chilly breeze, your soft glowing cheeks,
Why have they appeared before my eyes?
In this chilly breeze, your soft glowing cheeks,
Why have they appeared before my eyes?
For the eyes that gazed upon you, my beloved,
Shouldn't I string a garland?
For the eyes that gazed upon you, my beloved,
Shouldn't I string a garland?
From lips like a canopy of flowers,
Honey spills every single day.
Let it be, for joy too
Will come to me, will surely come.

Moist clouds dance in the breeze,
Running here and there.
Moist clouds dance in the breeze,
Running here and there.
As they drift to distant lands,
Won't they bring words of love to share?
As they drift to distant lands,
Won't they bring words of love to share?
Everywhere across the land,
Our kingdom can be built.
Every day in our togetherness, we can find pure joy.
