Takka dhimitha dhimitha
As my mind slipped away, he danced away and left.
Winking playfully, embracing me in one moment,
and becoming just a friend the next moment.
Like Krishna, dark as a rain-bearing cloud,
this little peacock's heart blossomed.
While conflicts break out all around,
will her lips give permission, longing for your bond?
Ah... you and I flew, turning into a speck of the sky.
If it is true we must part, life itself will leave me.
The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
Female: The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
You and I flew, turning into a speck of the sky.
If it is true we must part, life itself will leave me.
Male: The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
Male: Finding you within us is pure madness... Female: Madness...
Male: like water lost in the breeze... Female: Lost in it...
Female: Finding you within me is pure madness.
Male: Strummed by our gazes,
it became proof of our bond. Female: Proof.
Male: Do not cut my life away and leave; Both: do not snatch your gaze away.
Male: My heart gets drenched
Both: in your eyes. Male: A painting come to life... Female: A painting come to life...
Male: Wherever the path goes, I need you.
The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
Male: The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
Both: The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
Female: The intimacy every part of you offers dazes my mind,
and my eyes well up with tears.
