In that moment when I could not understand your gaze,
When the moon plays with you,
Isn't this sheer bliss? What is there to stop us now?
Oh... oh... as the cool breeze sweeps in waves!
In that moment when I could not understand your gaze,
When the moon plays with you,
Isn't this sheer bliss? What is there to stop us now?
Oh... oh... as the cool breeze sweeps in waves!
Aah... aah... aah...
Aah... aah... aah...
Like fish leaping in dancing rivers,
I saw that spark in your eyes, my darling.
What they reveal, this tender heart
Has dreamed a thousand dreams about.
When you walk with the grace of a swan, my heart flutters,
When you walk with the grace of a swan, my heart flutters,
Slowly, so slowly, so softly...
The bliss felt in an embrace is a whole new experience.
In that moment when I could not understand your gaze,
When the moon plays with you,
Isn't this sheer bliss? What is there to stop us now?
Oh... oh... as the cool breeze sweeps in waves!
At the smile on red lips brushed by the breeze,
This rose blushes with shy modesty.
The heart hovering over the blossom yearns
To gather the fragrant nectar and drink it.
Such enchanting beauty, a poem it recites,
Such enchanting beauty, a poem it recites,
Full of youth, sweetness, and freshness!
When morning comes, shyness blooms in your eyes.
In that moment when I could not understand your gaze,
When the moon plays with you,
Isn't this sheer bliss? What is there to stop us now?
Oh... oh... as the cool breeze sweeps in waves!
Aah... aah... aah...
Aah... aah... aah...
As drops of honey pour from silky petals,
The golden beetle watched on.
This is no bud, but a flower in bloom; the sweetness it spills—
Shall I put it into words?
Embracing each other in celebration today,
Embracing each other in celebration today,
Sweetness blossoms in this bond.
Born only for you, you have every right over me.
...
Mmm... mmm... mmm...
Isn't this sheer bliss? What is there to stop us now?
Ah... ah... as the cool breeze sweeps in waves!
