Hey kodi maangani

Hey, sweet mango on the vine,
fresh honeyed fruit,
I have plucked you, my darling enchantress!
You can touch me now,
plump mango fruit!
Sing without stopping, goddess of joy!
The rainbow has turned into a woman,
and she comes talking so lovingly.
A sweet moon appears right before my eyes,
hey... my whole body is melting away!
The earth is turning into heaven,
and the intoxication rises even higher.
The weather has completely changed,
showing us how to truly live life!
Hey, sweet mango on the vine,
fresh honeyed fruit,
I have plucked you, my darling enchantress!
You can touch me now,
plump mango fruit!
Sing without stopping, goddess of joy!
Hey...
The search I was longing for
has finally ended today,
and a sweet rush flows through my whole body.
Seeing our playful lovers' quarrels,
all shyness fades away,
and ten million lightning bolts flash.
Ah... fear and hesitation run away,
and desire only grows stronger.
Leaving nothing behind,
the body reaches the peak of bliss.
Ah, the goddess's body
has become a veena (stringed musical instrument),
seeking sweet musical notes.
The body expands like the wide earth,
and every desire is fulfilled.
Hey, sweet mango on the vine,
fresh honeyed fruit,
I have plucked you, my darling enchantress!
You can touch me now,
plump mango fruit!
Sing without stopping, goddess of joy!
The rainbow has turned into a woman,
and she comes talking so lovingly.
A sweet moon appears right before my eyes,
hey... my whole body is melting away!
The earth is turning into heaven,
and the intoxication rises even higher.
The weather has completely changed,
showing us how to truly live life!
Hey, sweet mango on the vine,
fresh honeyed fruit,
I have plucked you, my darling enchantress!
You can touch me now,
plump mango fruit!
Keep singing without stopping, goddess of joy...
