Cool and breezy, cool and breezy,
the springtime breeze
opens up the flower.
Restless and fluttering,
the butterfly
longs to take flight.
Lush, plump, and glowing
like a ripe cashew fruit,
her nose turns rosy red.
Looking at
her smooth and radiant,
dazzling beauty,
it takes your breath away!
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
Ah!
Oh, it brings thrilling shivers,
these cool, rose-petal cheeks!
Tender and soft,
ah, they stir up excitement,
these signs of growing into womanhood!
In these magical nights,
as you seek delight,
a thousand and one stories
are told by the milky moon.
Learn it all, girl, learn it all,
celebrate your youth just as you wish!
Ah!
Oh, it brings thrilling shivers,
these cool, rose-petal cheeks!
Tender and soft,
ah, they stir up excitement,
these signs of growing into womanhood!
A wondrous body,
a letter written with desires,
slowly from now on,
she will lay out a feast.
Like a tiny dewdrop
falling into a flower's lap,
all the pleasures ahead,
she will soak in and enjoy.
Soft to the touch,
she is like a sculpted stone,
she is like a gentle breeze
rising toward the sky!
Is she the flower child
born from that rainbow?
Oh ho ho!
She is a sculpture from Khajuraho,
she is a poem written by Kannadasan!
Is she a floating
houseboat from Kashmir?
Playing hide-and-seek,
are you a hidden treasure?
Oh my, oh my,
beautiful girl, come, come!
Ah!
Oh, it brings thrilling shivers,
these cool, rose-petal cheeks!
Tender and soft,
ah, they stir up excitement,
these signs of growing into womanhood!
The hunger of youth,
searching for a sweet taste,
her lovely lips
will ignite that spark!
Like wave crashing
against wave in the sea,
her swaying waist
will set hearts on fire...
She is a sweet bunch
of Kabul grapes!
A masterpiece of sculpture
from ancient Greece!
Is she the finest creation of Kamadevan (the god of love)?
Oh ho ho!
Hey, why all this research?
She is an exhibition of Manmadhan (the god of love)!
Who will be the lucky one
to come and see her?
As youth blooms like a flower,
and the heart pours sweet honey,
Oh my, oh my,
beautiful girl, come, come!
Ah!
Oh, it brings thrilling shivers,
these cool, rose-petal cheeks!
Tender and soft,
ah, they stir up excitement,
these signs of growing into womanhood!
In these magical nights,
as you seek delight,
a thousand and one stories
are told by the milky moon.
Learn it all, girl, learn it all,
celebrate your youth just as you wish!
