Rumbling, mighty Ghatotkacha!
Swift, fearless, and valiant!
Rumbling, mighty Ghatotkacha!
Swift and fearless!
Swift and fearless!
My flag must fly high in every direction!
My voice must echo across the whole world!
My enemies must bow down at my feet!
They must tremble until they surrender!
He is the son of the mighty Bhima!
He is kin to the righteous Dharmar!
He solves the troubles of all his allies!
He is the king whom everyone bows to!
Rumbling, mighty Ghatotkacha!
Swift, fearless, and valiant!
Rumbling, mighty Ghatotkacha!
Swift and fearless!
Swift and fearless!
My love, my precious soul,
My sweet nectar, come close to me.
With the clouds in the sky and the night,
Plays the shining white moon.
Gazing softly into my eyes,
Plays this moon of a girl.
My darling, I will never leave you,
I will never forget you on any day.
My love, my precious soul,
I have come close to your side.
Day and night, thinking of you,
My eyes see dreams of you.
Across my eyelids and through my sleep,
Your graceful presence wanders.
My beloved, I will never leave you,
I will never forget you on any day.
Bravo!...
Oh, I truly want you,
My darling gold, pure gold!
I cannot take my eyes off you,
My darling gold, pure gold!
Shall I gather handfuls of pearls and gems for you?
Shall I give you the very sky as a wedding gift?
Oh, I truly want you,
My darling gold, pure gold!
I cannot take my eyes off you,
My darling gold, pure gold!
May all thirty-three crore gods,
And the goddesses of the Holy Trinity,
Wholeheartedly and from the bottom of their souls today,
Bestow their boons and bless them,
To rule the world and wear the crown of fame,
As praises are sung in sweet song,
Long live the bride and groom!
May they live happily without any sorrows forever!

Trivia

Although labeled under film contexts in modern compilations, these traditional celebratory and mythological lyrics draw heavily from classical Indian epic themes (Ghatotkacha from Mahabaratha) merged with classic wedding folk benediction motifs.
