Thunder rumbles, rumbles…
The chill blows, blows…
Male: Mm mm
Thunder is rumbling and rumbling,
right here, right now,
the rain is about to fall, girl!
The chill is blowing and biting,
bursting from bud to bud,
the flowers have blossomed, girl!

Hey jingucha
Jikku jingucha
Hey jingucha jikku jingucha!
If a three-legged stool is set,
one feels like sitting down on it, oh…
To sit down and begin a song,
I need your support, girl!
Saying this and that,
you charm and dazzle me!
You awaken the desires sleeping inside me!
To take and to give,
you hesitate and hold back!
Girl, you keep me from what is meant for me!
Are you the chilly north breeze
that comes to pull away my clothes and look?
What is the harm in looking?
Is this tender or unripe?
Oh my, if I look at that,
a wild passion will take over!
Thunder is rumbling and rumbling,
right here, right now,
the rain is about to fall, girl!
The chill is blowing and biting,
bursting from bud to bud,
the flowers have blossomed, girl!
To strike a pleasant rhythm
with perfect timing,
Male: Ha haan
Female: This is the right moment!
Look, ready just for that,

Hey jingucha jingu jingucha
Hey jingucha jingu jingucha

Hey jingucha jingu jingucha
You delicate glass vessel,
my fine concert musical instrument… ha!
Come into my hands quickly!
Just seeing you makes my desire rush!
From head to toe,
a shiver runs through me!
An urgent longing
sprouts inside my heart!
Sweet fruit juice
drips from your lips!
To drink it up, my heart
melts with yearning!
Gently, up and down,
scoop me up like a basketball!
Only for you to tell a playful lie,
saying, "Enough, enough!"
Won't sweet milk and clear honey
come surging everywhere?
Thunder is rumbling and rumbling,
right here, right now,
the rain is about to fall, girl!
The chill is blowing and biting,
bursting from bud to bud,
the flowers have blossomed, girl!
To strike a pleasant rhythm
with perfect timing,
this is the right moment!
Look, ready just for that,
nearby is the mridangam (drum), hoy!
Thunder is rumbling and rumbling,
right here, right now,
the rain is about to fall, girl!
The chill is blowing and biting,
bursting from bud to bud,
the flowers have blossomed, girl!

right here, right now,
the rain is about to fall, girl!
The chill is blowing and biting,
bursting from bud to bud,
the flowers have blossomed, girl!

Alliteration (Monai)
“Idi idikkudhu idikkudhu / Ippa ingu ippa ingu”
Repetition of the initial vowel sound 'I' across consecutive words creates a rhythmic and melodic flow.
