When I walk, it is an action-packed sensation!
My speech is a crackling firecracker!
You are the vine of love that wraps around me.
When you walk, it is an action-packed sensation!
Your speech is a crackling firecracker!
I am the vine of love that wraps around you.
Who am I?
A glittering star!
Female: And I am, to you...
...a garland of pearls admiring you!
Hearing my name, a bullet explodes!
Don't wave goodbye to me with your eyes!
Female: Hearing your name, a bullet explodes!
Don't wave goodbye to me with your eyes!
You are the uproar in my heart!
You are the fever deep within!
You are love swimming in my blood!
You are a swarm of fireflies!
You are a thick mist of white snow!
You are a orchard of sweet mangoes!
You are the daughter born to the moon!
Female: You are the cousin from the moon's side!
A house made of saree veil,
A bamboo forest...
I will light a fire with my ten fingers!
Female: Why this rush?
No need for lust!
I will lock the door to Cupid's house!
You are born to rule!
Deadly Sura, only Sura!
You are born to rule!
You are too cool!
You are my Sura, brave hero of love!
You are too cool!
...
You are Cupid's arrow!
You are a toned, powerful sinew!
You are mischief and trouble in the night!
You are a butterfly!
You are the unspoken speech in the eyes!
You are forever the witness of love!
I am a fierce jallikattu bull!
Female: I am a bundle of grass for your hunger!
Within arm's reach,
The scene changes!
Just seeing the flower, passion rises!
Forever behind you,
A bouquet of roses!
As for me, I am a puppet in your hands!
When I walk, it is an action-packed sensation!
My speech is a crackling firecracker!
You are the vine of love that wraps around me.
When you walk, it is an action-packed sensation!
Your speech is a crackling firecracker!
I am the vine of love that wraps around you.
Who am I?
A glittering star!
Female: And I am, to you...
...a garland of pearls admiring you!
Hearing my name, a bullet explodes!
Don't wave goodbye to me with your eyes!
Female: Hearing your name, a bullet explodes!
Don't wave goodbye to me with your eyes!
