My precious girl who carries bricks,
Hey girl, I am your mighty lion,
A true manly lion...
My precious girl who carries bricks,
Hey girl, I am your mighty lion,
A true manly lion...
Without diving into deep water,
You can never gather pearls.
Without building a home of our own,
These eyes will never close in peace.
Even if I must sell my dhoti and towel,
I will definitely build our home...
My precious girl who carries bricks,
Hey girl, I am your mighty lion,
A true manly lion...
Ever since you married me,
What great fortune did you ever get?
Four children are the only gain you ever saw!
Ever since you married me,
What great fortune did you ever get?
Four children are the only gain you ever saw!
Counting profit and loss,
Is a sin for a woman.
As long as it is bought by your hands,
Even simple turmeric is a blessing.
Enough of buttering me up like that,
I have already caught a fever, ah...
Female: Oh, making an excuse of a fever,
Enough of leaning on me—look at your age!
My precious girl who carries bricks,
Hey girl, I am your mighty lion,
A true manly lion...
Without diving into deep water,
You can never gather pearls.
Without building a home of our own,
These eyes will never close in peace.
Male: Even if I must sell my dhoti and towel,
I will definitely build our home...
You must build our home and boil the milk,
And I will stand beside you to light the sacred lamp.
Male: Ever since you married me, you never asked for a thing,
And I never even bought you snacks or sweets.
For a woman, just a four-anna string of jasmine
Is more than enough, my king.
Male: I didn't even buy you that cheap flower,
What a useless king I am,
This utterly good-for-nothing king...
My precious girl who carries bricks,
Hey girl, I am your mighty lion,
A true manly lion...
Before we build that house,
Let me hold you close in my arms!
Female: Oh, my wedded king,
I give in to your command.
Oh no, stop it!
Acting naughty is wrong, our pulse has grown weak with age!
Your strength has already faded!
Female: What?...
Male: Aha-han, but my beard has only grown bolder!
