Two birds in the night
Both writing poems together
Female: All these poems are secret
A wonder painted by their eyes
Aa aa... aa... aa... aa... aa...
Aa... aa... aa.... aa....
She in his embrace
He united with her
Female: This desire is overwhelming, oh my!
How the body comes to life!
The lover resting on his beloved's lap
The beloved held close by her lover
Two birds in the night
Both writing poems together
Male: All these poems are secret
A wonder painted by their eyes
...
As lips press against lips
Harmony and rhythm are born
Male: A melody is created—what a wonder!
A flood of music flows
Female: As we drench one another
And the whole world cools down
...
Spreading fragrance without being plucked
The dewy lotus smiles
Male: As she comes and charms him more and more
Female: Charms him more and more
Male: As he forgets himself completely
Female: Forgets himself completely
...
As her cheeks blush red
As he leaves his kiss
Male: As she gives one after another
Female: Giving one after another
Male: As he takes one after another
Female: Taking one after another
