It is you, only you,
you were born just for me!
Will my love win?
In this exile where I live,
in this prison of mine,
you are the companion who came to rescue me!
Wherever you are near me,
I wished to stay close like your shadow.
Even if you walk far ahead,
my heart will still search for you.
Jasmine flowers bloom for me,
won't they smile if you place them in my hair?
A life without you—
what meaning does it have for me?
It is you, only you,
you were born just for me!
Will my love win?
As the drums resound
and the rhythm plays,
the auspicious wedding hour draws near.
Oh, like Ganga and Gowri,
with the elders' heartfelt blessings,
it takes place with a joyous feast.
Listen to the wedding drums beating fast,
as our family showers sacred rice grains!
Mm mm, to hold our wedding ceremony
and look up at the star Arundhati!
Chorus: We must live a fragrant, beautiful life together!
Oh oh oh-oh
It is you, only you,
you were born just for me!
Will my love win?
Oh, as the bee inside the flower
falls deeply in love,
sweet honey is born here.
Male: Hey, don't just put on
a dramatic act for show,
make a little way for me!
The girl who lives only for you,
do not distress her, for you are my very life!
Even if there is another rebirth,
I must always remember you.
And so, this mark of love,
you alone must tattoo upon me.
It is you, only you,
you were born just for me!
Will my love win?
