When the rooster crows at dawn
Male: Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Female: The wedding drums will sound
Male: Dum-dum-dum, dum-dum, dum-dum-dum
The thali (sacred wedding thread) must be tied around the neck
Male: And next comes the sweet work of embracing!
Female: Just thinking about it...
Sweetness like honey fills my mouth!
When the rooster crows at dawn
Female: Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Male: The wedding drums will sound
Female: Dum-dum-dum, dum-dum, dum-dum-dum
The thali (sacred wedding thread) must be tied around the neck
Female: And next comes the sweet work of embracing!
Male: Just thinking about it...
Sweetness like honey fills my mouth!
Every evening when the lamps are lit,
I grow thin just yearning for that moment!
Let the wedding just be over,
I am ready and waiting eagerly!
Do we really have to look for an auspicious day?
Female: Just because food is cooked, should you gobble it all up at once?
If a cat spots a bowl full of milk,
Will it ever leave it alone?
Female: It's your wild thoughts that are spoiling you!
Male: It's my young age that is teaching me!
When the rooster crows at dawn
Male: Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Female: The wedding drums will sound
Male: Dum-dum-dum, dum-dum, dum-dum-dum
The thali (sacred wedding thread) must be tied around the neck
Male: And next comes the sweet work of embracing!
Female: Just thinking about it...
Sweetness like honey fills my mouth!
If you grab and squeeze it so roughly,
Won't a fresh flower lose its petals?
Male: When we press close and brush against each other,
Won't it feel wonderful in a whole new way?
Cornering me like this, you keep stirring me up!
Male: Stepping aside, you just make sweet excuses!
For the man who will garland me as his bride,
Is this the only work you have to do?
Male: That is why I am in such a rush!
Female: You must keep everything under control for now!
When the rooster crows at dawn
Female: Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Male: The wedding drums will sound
Female: Dum-dum-dum, dum-dum, dum-dum-dum
The thali (sacred wedding thread) must be tied around the neck
Female: And next comes the sweet work of embracing!
Male: Just thinking about it...
Sweetness like honey fills my mouth!
