The short-tempered girl who went to keep watch,
Fell in love and became the lady of the house!
What happened, oh what happened?
A thirst was born deep in the heart!
We became one, we became one,
Both our bodies became one!
Both: Drinking the sweet honey of love,
We can enjoy it every single day!
The short-tempered girl who went to keep watch,
Fell in love and became the lady of the house!

Both our bodies became one!
Both: Drinking the sweet honey of love,
We can enjoy it every single day!
The short-tempered girl who went to keep watch,
Oh, she fell in love and became the lady of the house!
I am a fresh new face, experiences begin only now,
Why the rush? I will show you wonders!
Male: We can drift on the breeze to the land of Kamadeva (the god of love),
And whisper a thousand sweet words into your ear!
Female: Half of you in me, and the rest of me in you,
Male: A hundred pleasures to seek—search gently and see!
Hoo hoo, hey hey hey...

We can enjoy it every single day!
The short-tempered girl who went to keep watch,
Fell in love and became the lady of the house!
When I think of her completely, oh, she burns like fire!
Oh my, when I hold her in my dreams, she turns blissfully cool!
Female: Even if the breeze touches me, it feels like a wound,
My heart longs to cross every guard and restraint!
Male: The sweet burden in the heart rises, passion crosses all limits!
Female: Speech will fade away today, only our eyes will talk!
Male: Hey! Female: Hey!
Male: Hoo! Female: Hoo ho hoo!

The short-tempered girl who went to keep watch,
Fell in love and became the lady of the house, ha!
