O intoxicating flower,
O intoxicating flower,
On the island of your sari,
give me a little space.
O tongue flowing with sweet words,
O tongue flowing with sweet words,
Into the island of my sari,
step inside slowly.
Are you a walking spirit,
or a statue of Kama (god of love)?
The moment you arrived,
did it rain upon my bed? Hoo...
O intoxicating flower,
O intoxicating flower,
On the island of your sari,
give me a little space.
Looking at you, he burned with desire,
hearing your name, he got into the mood,
he will surrender in this battle of clothes,
he is completely finished by you now.
He will fulfill every craving,
he is the chariot that carries me away,
he was captured by my eyes,
he is undone, he is utterly undone!
A restless spirit stirs inside me,
with endless longings.
Female: Let our desires be fulfilled,
let all shyness turn to dust.
O intoxicating flower,
O intoxicating flower,
On the island of your sari,
give me a little space.
