Kannamma,
I keep thinking of you in my heart.
Look at me,
my girl.
I yearn to speak
so sweetly of so many things,
if only you would speak to me,
my darling...
Kannamma,
I keep thinking of you in my heart.
Look at me,
my girl.
I yearn to speak
so sweetly of so many things,
if only you would speak to me,
my darling...
Deep inside me,
you gave me a brand-new love.
Even the ache in my heart
turns into sweet joy if you say so.
Never captivated by anyone,
never caught in anyone's gaze,
why did you enter my heart
and become my true direction?
Don't give me that half glance
and kill my heart deep inside.
You even gave me the joy
of walking beside your shadow.
Kannamma,
I keep thinking of you in my heart.
Look at me,
my girl.
I yearn to speak
so sweetly of so many things,
if only you would speak to me,
my darling...
Kannamma,
I keep thinking of you in my heart.
Look at me,

my darling...
Mmm... mm... mm... mmm...
Mmm... mm... mm... mmm... mm...
Mmm... mm... mm... mmm...
Mmm... mm... mm... mmm... mm...
Oh, the words spoken
by silence are so beautiful, my girl.
Caressing me for a lifetime, that is enough...
That new language hidden
at the corners of your lips, break it open!
White flower,
you are my moon,
the beauty who fills my sky.
Tell me, does my breath
touch your soul? Come and tell me!
Oh moon... oh flower...
Oh poem... oh beauty...
Oh unquenched light...
Come into my heart, come, come...
Oh moon... oh flower...
Oh poem... oh beauty...
Come into my heart, come, come...
Aah... aah... aa... aah... aah... aah...
Aah... aah... aah... aah...
Aah... aah... haa... aah... aah...
Kannamma,
I keep thinking of you in my heart.
Look at me,
my girl.
I yearn to speak
so sweetly of so many things,
if only you would speak to me,
my darling...
Aah... aah... aah... aah...
My girl...
Aah... aah... aah... aah...
My darling...
Aah... aah... aah... aah...
Aah... aah... aah... aah...
