Is it an illusion, an illusion?
Yo, is it an illusion, an illusion?
Unseen anywhere in this world,
Unsatisfied even after reaching heaven,
Are all the desires here just an illusion?
Is it an illusion, an illusion?
Yo, is it an illusion, an illusion?
Unseen anywhere in this world,
Unsatisfied even after reaching heaven,
Are all the desires here just an illusion?
Unseen anywhere in this world,
Unsatisfied even after reaching heaven,
Are all the desires here just an illusion?
Hey, are your cheeks glowing?
Are your eyes sparkling bright?
Is your heart melting,
Upon seeing me?
Oh, to the lively rhythm of this music,
In the gentle patter of the rain,
Get drenched just a little and see,
There is sweet joy in it!
