Kaali... Kaali...
Kaali... Kaali...
For a hundred eras,
I will be born just for you.
Like an eyelid to the eye,
I will stay by your side.
To match your worth,
I will give myself to you.
If any harm comes your way,
I will block it with my life.
To have you come into my arms
as a gift from God,
what penance did I do
to receive you here?
Having come to you as a blessing,
what can I give you in return?
Step into my body
and claim my life.
For a hundred eras,
I will be born just for you.
Like an eyelid to the eye,
I will stay by your side.
Like floodwaters rushing into a valley,
I will always think of you, my companion...
Your sweet, playful pride,
I will hold close and embrace.
Deep in my soul and on my body,
I will carry you, my love...
Even if the world comes to an end,
I will still think of you.
In the very center of my heart,
you made yourself a seat and sat down.
All the happiness in the world,
you gave me in the form of one woman...
Aaha... aa... haa... nan nan nan nan
Aaha... aa... haa... nan nan nan nan
Aha... aa... haa... aaaa...
Aha... aa... haa... aaaa... thi rara rara naa
A permanent place in your lap,
you gave to me, my love...
Even if God Himself came and stood before me,
I refused to turn away from you.
It is for you alone
that my heart beats, my love...
Even while I sleep, my lips
call out your name.
Because I bury myself in you,
I will be born again and again.
With you by my side as my companion,
I will walk till the very end.
For a hundred eras,
I will be born just for you.
Like an eyelid to the eye,
I will stay by your side.
To match your worth,
I will give myself to you.
If any harm comes your way,
I will block it with my life.
To have you come into my arms
as a gift from God,
what penance did I do
to receive you here?
Having come to you as a blessing,
what can I give you in return?
Step into my body
and claim my life.
For a hundred eras,
I will be born just for you.
Like an eyelid to the eye,
I will stay by your side.
