The grasshopper of love
bit my eye,
and into the dimple on my cheek,
it hopped and leaped!
Crossing past my lips,
flowing through my heart,
it touches my waist!
The grasshopper of love
bit my eye,
and into the dimple on my cheek,
it hopped and leaped!
My tender, fig-like body
is worn out with yearning,
and your aunt's daughter
has gone crazy with love!
I like it, I like it,
I really like you, oh!
Did the grasshopper of love
bite your eye?
And into the dimple on your cheek,
did it hop and leap?
Did the grasshopper of love
bite your eye?
And into the dimple on your cheek,
did it hop and leap?
You are a kingdom,
and I shall wage a battle!
Male: Oh dear,
are you real or an illusion?
On that betel vine,
the green parrots
stammer when they speak of us—
why is that, my girl?
In the shelter of the banyan tree,
the sweet cuckoos
call out our names—
why is that, my girl?
This tale of ours,
who do I even tell it to?
Under this green thatched roof,
my skin is burning with desire!
The grasshopper of love
bit my eye, oh!
Male: And into the dimple on your cheek,
it hopped and leaped!
Female: The grasshopper of love
bit my eye, hey!
Male: Your aunt's daughter
has gone crazy with love!
You are sweet milk,
and I am a baby in your arms.
Female: You are the lamp,
and I will be the wick.
In the book of
the world's great beauties,
on the front cover
is your face!
I look down at
my twenty nails,
and reflecting back at me
are your lovely faces!
As we walk together
upon the beach sand,
the wave of love touches our feet
and drenches us!
The grasshopper of love
bit my eye,
and into the dimple on my cheek,
it hopped and leaped!
The grasshopper of love
bit my eye,
and into the dimple on my cheek,
it hopped and leaped!
Crossing past my lips,
flowing through my heart,
it touches my waist!
Seeing a child's tender form,
I became a sculptor.
Looking at a blank page,
I became a poet.
Looking at sleeping beauty,
I became a painter.
The moment you touched me,
what did I become?
I like it, I like it,
I really like you, oh!
