A story of a stolen story,
The story of a fried vada,
The story of grandma frying a vada,
The vada that grandma fried,
The story of the crow stealing it away,
Going up to that crow,
The story that a fox spun,
As soon as the crow opened its mouth,
Down fell the vada,
And the fox stole the fallen vada—
What a story, story, story!
Story, story, story, story!
There is a story in the breeze,
There is a story in this earth.
There is a story in the breeze,
There is a story in this earth.
If you win, there is a story,
If you lose, there is a story.
Kept unspoken in the heart,
There are so many stories!
The man who gambled away his wife,
There is a story of him winning the war.
Male: To rescue and bring back a wife,
There is an army made of monkeys.
With surging rage, twisting off her breast,
There is a story of her burning the city down.
Male: Scorched in that fire and flying away,
In the crow's beak is the vada grandma fried!
Female: In it is the vada grandma fried!
There is a story in the breeze,
(There is a story in the breeze)
There is a story in this earth,
(There is a story in this earth)
La la la la la la laaa...
The heart of the tortoise trailing behind,
He made it yearn to get ahead.
Inside the hare racing ahead,
He gave it arrogance and put it to sleep.
Just when concluding the story, that rogue,
Posed a puzzling question right there!
Making the ghost turn right back,
He hung it up on the tree again.
Cutting the story into four pieces,
He shuffled this and that around.
When I asked, "Why this useless work?"
He said, "That is a screenplay!"... aa...
There is a story in the breeze,
There is a story in this earth.
There is a story in the breeze,
There is a story in this earth.
Not a moment without a story,
Not a person without a story.
In this life of yours,
If there is no story, you are nothing at all.
Aa aa aa aa aa aa...
Listening to the lines the serpent spoke,
Someone bit the forbidden fruit and ruined it all.
Repeating the lines it taught him,
Someone completely stirred another's heart,
And sowed the seed of sin.
To share wisdom ripe as fruit,
Countless old proverbs lie around.
To comfort the fox's heart, they say:
"Tch, even the fruit of wisdom is sour!"
For the sake of that fruit,
The younger brother
Circled around the whole world,
But the sweet-talking older brother
Said, "Mother and Father are the whole world!"
Hey, if the world is just a stage,
And you and I are only actors,
Who is going to whistle
And enjoy our performance?
Aa ha ha ha ha...
Stories of millions of human lives,
He locked deep inside the earth.
Setting this earth spinning around,
He made us all dance to his tune.
Through birth, livelihood, and death,
He made us sing out every day.
Just for the belly's next meal,
He made us fight each other.
Male: He made us search for an ending!
There is a story in the breeze,
There is a story in this earth.
There is a story in the breeze,
There is a story in this earth.
If you win, there is a story,
If you lose, there is a story.
Kept unspoken in the heart,
There are so many stories... ooh... ooh...
There is a story in the breeze,
There is a story in this earth.
Not a moment without a story,
Not a person without a story.
In this life of yours,
If there is no story, you are nothing at all.
