Mama,
Why, dear?
Why not give me a helping hand?
Mama... Mama...
Oh, why, dear?
Should you stand far away without coming close?
When it is time to cook rice, if you just stand idle,
lounging around in comfort, it is so unfair!
Mama,
Why, dear?
Why not give me a helping hand?
Why not help me with the cooking?
Mama...
We do not need
this food right now... ooh...
Goodness me, look inside!
A grand arrangement has been made!
A bed and mattress made of flowers
are all laid out and ready!
Come, come, let us go cuddle,
it is getting very late!
If day after day
you embraced me and made me your own, Mama,
should you still be feeling restless today?
Wait patiently without wilting, I am coming,
and even without you asking, everything I have,
I will give to you...
Mama,
Why, dear?
Why not give me a helping hand?
Mama... Mama...
Oh, why, dear?
Should you stand far away without coming close?
When it is time to cook rice, if you just stand idle,
lounging around in comfort, it is so unfair!
Mama,
Why, dear?
Why not give me a helping hand?
Why not help me with the cooking?
Mama...
Have the gentle breeze and the moonlight
turned burning hot?
Has an unruly passion arrived
to torment you like this?
To wait just a little while,
can you not manage that?
Even if it takes some time,
won't our bond bring us together?
Shooting five or six arrows,
Kaman (god of love) is striking me!
If you sway and stay away,
your Mama will lose his mind!
Through the night, both my eyes will not sleep,
so sing your sweet melody softly,
come close and never leave, my girl!
Mama,
Should you tease and pick a fight with me?
Why, dear?
Mama...
Should you be cooking rice at this hour?
My golden deer, my flower, unite with me as one,
for you are the real feast meant for me!
Come, dear!
Mama,
Should you tease and pick a fight with me?
Oh, should you really tease and pick a fight with me?
