Looking at you for the very first time,
I ask you one thing: do you recognize me? Ah...
Does the love that came across lifetimes,
and that deep affection return to your heart?
Looking at you for the very first time,
I ask you one thing: do you recognize me? Ah...
Does the love that came across lifetimes,
and that deep affection return to your heart?
O beautiful island,
O ocean of joy,
O hibiscus of the palace chambers, are you well?
You nighttime rogue,
you secret thief,
are your mischievous fingers doing well?
Is the honey on your lips sweet?
I gave it all to you, was it blissful?
O my heaven, are you well?
Is this sweet pleasure feeling good? Ah...
Looking at you for the very first time,
I ask you one thing: do you recognize me? Ah...
Does the love that came across lifetimes,
and that deep affection return to your heart?
Coming closer and closer,
tickling me playfully,
and pinching me—are you enjoying yourself?
Walking away step by step,
flashing like lightning and pulling me close,
are the charms of this sculpted beauty feeling sweet?
Last night,
was it wonderful?
Tonight,
is it even sweeter?
O my heaven, are you well?
Is this sweet pleasure feeling good? Ah...
Looking at you for the very first time,
I ask you one thing: do you recognize me? Ah...
Does the love that came across lifetimes,
and that deep affection return to your heart?
Looking at you for the very first time,
I ask you one thing: do you recognize me? Ah...
Does the love that came across lifetimes,
and that deep affection return to your heart?
