வெளிச்சத்தை வெறுத்திடும் புஸ்தகம் படிக்கலாம்
விரகத்தை தீர்த்திடும் தத்துவம் பேசலாம்
வான் முற்றத்தில் நிலவொன்று வா வா வா
தேன் சொட்டிடும் மலரொன்று வா வா வா...
வான் முற்றத்தில் நிலவொன்று வா வா வா
தேன் சொட்டிடும் மலரொன்று வா வா வா...
We can read a book that despises light,
We can discuss a philosophy that quenches passion.
Oh moon in the sky's courtyard, come, come, come!
Oh flower dripping with honey, come, come, come!
Oh moon in the sky's courtyard, come, come, come!
Oh flower dripping with honey, come, come, come!

தேகத்தின் ராகம் மீட்ட வா வா வா
தேராட்டம் ஆடிக் காட்ட வா வா வா
Come to witness the sacred milk of desire in my eyes,
Come to adorn yourself with the dowry of midnight from me.
Come to strum the melody of the body, come, come, come!
Come to dance and display the chariot procession, come, come, come, come!
