If you whisper your wish in my ear,

I will make it come true.

For your sake, even the blazing heat,

I will turn into rain.

Whispering your name over and over,

my lips have worn thin.

Who will tell you this today?

Oh girl, oh girl,

this man's desires

are so very simple.

Oh girl, oh girl,

even when you asked,

Oh girl, oh girl,

all of this man's needs

were already known to you,

as one by one,

you gave them all.

So you can sleep like a child,

I will turn my shoulders into a cradle.

Teasing you with my love,

I will make you mine.

You are a flower

that blossomed in the wild;

I will build a fence to guard you.

If even the breeze touches you,

I will arrest it right away.

I have gone crazy for you,

my whole world has turned upside down.

The moment your gaze touches me,

I shatter just like glass.

Oh girl, oh girl,

this man's desires

are so very simple.

Oh girl, oh girl,

even when you asked,

Oh girl, oh girl,

all of this man's needs

were already known to you,

as one by one,

you gave them all.

A strange, unspoken desire

reaches the edge of my heart, offering flowers.

Love reveals me to myself

in such a brand-new light!

Asking, "Who is she, who is she?"

when a question teases my ear,

saying, "She is my other half,"

I point toward you.

Where were you all this time, girl?

How did you enter inside my heart?

Losing sleep because of you,

I woke up all on my own.

Oh girl, oh girl,

this man's desires

are so very simple.

Oh girl, oh girl,

even when you asked,

Oh girl, oh girl,

all of this man's needs

were already known to you,

as one by one,

you gave them all.

If you whisper your wish in my ear,

I will make it come true.

For your sake, even the blazing heat,

I will turn into rain.

Whispering your name over and over,

my lips have worn thin.

Who will tell you this today?
