The fun now
When you feel afraid
At the disguise I wear
Do not look and laugh
The poison inside me
Do not dig up and drink
Oh oh Eesa, my Eesa
My Eesa who consumes holy ash
Oh Eesa, my Eesa
Through all of this dark age, my Eesa
Oh Eesa, my Eesa
Master sculptor, my Eesa
Oh Eesa, my Eesa
To the right of people, your Eesa
...
I will create, I will destroy
I can make millions just like you
I will take away, I will give
Just to rest for a while
Thaam thagodhom thadhithom
Thigidhom thidhom thaadhom
Thom thagodhom thigidhom
Thagathaaga thom
One day, deep inside me
All the dust of worldly desires will settle
Govinda Govinda
Take me higher, Govinda
Govinda Govinda
Feel the fire, Govinda
Govinda Govinda
Take me closer, Govinda
Govinda Govinda
Can't wait longer, Govinda
