Close them, close them, close your eyes!
Hold me, hold me, hold me tight!
Close them, close them, close your eyes!
Hold me, hold me, hold me tight!
Oh my, is she made of pure gold?
Oh my, she is so naughty!
Oh my, is she made of pure gold?
Oh my, she is so naughty!
She runs so deep... take the cloth and...
Close them, close them, close your eyes!
Hold me, hold me, hold me tight!
Hey, a story like this, anywhere, anytime,
I have never ever seen before!
To go around telling everyone,
this is no Mahabharata epic!
The fire sparked over there
is catching flame right here now!
Ha, what to do, how to stop it?
Pour some water on it, what's wrong with that?
When my eyes are covered and blinded,
the whispers of love echo in my ears!
Male: To steal a sly glance and enjoy the moment,
both my eyes are trembling with excitement!
Calm your heart down a little!
Male: Ah-ha!
Female: Restrain me a little too!
Male: Oh my!
Female: Calm your heart down a little!
Restrain me a little too!
Male: Mmm...
Female: Aah-haha...
Male: Aaha...
Female: Hha...
Male: Eyyy...
Ha... Close them, close them, close your eyes!
Hold me, hold me, hold me tight!
Ha... When the rooster circles around, can the hen stay away?
When desire rushes in, my girl can't resist!
Female: In town, I heard that touching feet is a sin,
but on this bed, I saw that entwining legs is pure heaven!
The debt of passion set by Kama (god of love) is still unpaid,
shall we open our eyes and settle it?
Female: A fever burns inside and my soul trembles,
should we just step back and wait?
The black ant is biting, girl...
Female: Aah...
Male: This tender sugarcane is throbbing, girl...
Female: Aah...
Male: The black ant is biting,
this tender sugarcane is throbbing...
Female: Hey... haha... mmhhaha
Male: Mmhha...
Oh my goodness!
Close them, close them, close your eyes!
Female: Hold me, hold me, hold me tight!
Oh my, is she made of pure gold?
Oh my, she is so naughty!
Female: Oh my!
Male: Is she made of pure gold?
Female: Oh my!
Male: She is so naughty!
She runs so deep... take the cloth and...
Close them, close them, close your eyes!
Female: Hold me, hold me, hold me tight!
