My lovebird, my very life,

I was charmed by the flutter of your eyes.

Female: I have come with dreams of desire,

I have given myself to you, come close to me.

There are no barriers anymore.

In the month of Masi (auspicious wedding season),

I will exchange wedding garlands with you.

The arts of love,

I will learn them through the night.

My lovebird, my very life,

My lovebird, my very life,

I was charmed by the flutter of your eyes.

Is that the bright moon, or is it your smile?

Shall I sweep you into my arms, or gently caress you?

Colorful bird of my heart,

come take shelter on this bed of desire.

I will come to you eagerly,

and hold you in a warm embrace.

Gather your pearl-like drops of love

and unite them within me.

In the month of Masi (auspicious wedding season),

I will exchange wedding garlands with you.

A love letter,

I will write to you every day.

Sana na sana na

Inside my heart,

I held you close and tied you to me,

I planted a sweet kiss,

you are pure honey to me.

Completely and fully,

I have surrendered myself to you,

I have won your heart,

so why feel shy anymore?

This youthful longing is a sweet trouble,

and there is no way to hold it back.

In the month of Masi (auspicious wedding season),

I will exchange wedding garlands with you.

For all of time,

I will give myself to you.
