O love of the Taj Mahal,
O love of the Taj Mahal,
Come, come, you can live with us!
To speak of love on this earth,
O waiting flowers,
Come, come, spread your fragrance!
Why are the stars in the sky
Chorus: Yay yeah
Male: opening their mouths?
Chorus: Yay yeah
Why are the stars in the sky
opening their mouths?
Female: From the maiden Earth,
they are asking for a kiss!
Oh my, my heart
is flying, flying, flying
away!
Come, come... (x4)
O love of the Taj Mahal,
O love of the Taj Mahal,
Come, come, you can live with us!
Let's go!
To speak of love on this earth,
O waiting flowers,
Come, come, spread your fragrance!
Showing your face again and again,
feeding me joy again and again,
love lifted and raised me up, my girl!
Like a rushing wild flood,
holding my hand and leading me,
my love brought me straight to you!
Thinking I had no one in this world,
inside my lonely heart,
a swing sways with your memories, my girl!
There are flowers everywhere on earth,
yet yearning for the flowers you give,
my hair grew long and lovely!
Isn't love
like a mother's tender care?
Isn't love like a mother's tender care?
Female: Aren't we both
just little children?
Without ever sleeping,
in a lullaby of day and night,
shall I open my eyes and gaze?
Come, come... (x4)
Ah, O love of the Taj Mahal,
O love of the Taj Mahal,
Come, come, you can live with us!
To speak of love on this earth,
O waiting flowers,
Come, come, spread your fragrance!
Quack quack quack
Quack quack quack
Quack... quack...
Quack quack quack quack quack quack
Searching for grains,
like a white dove in the heart,
it circled round and round because of you, my boy!
Like a young boy herding his sheep,
guiding all its desires along, my heart
came following right behind you!
Running along with the gentle breeze,
as you blend into my very breath,
you make me feel so many things!
Wearing a sari woven from a rainbow,
showering needle-sharp flashes and drizzle,
you tell me to close my eyes!
If you close your eyes,
I will show you a wonder!
If you close your eyes,
I will show you a wonder!
Male: If you blush with shyness, I will reach out my hands!
Because of you, my tender self
ripened, softened, and blushed red!
Come, come... (x4)
O love of the Taj Mahal,
O love of the Taj Mahal,
Come, come, you can live with us!
To speak of love on this earth,
O waiting flowers,
Come, come, spread your fragrance!
Why are the stars in the sky
opening their mouths?
Why are the stars in the sky
opening their mouths?
Female: From the maiden Earth,
they are asking for a kiss!
Oh my, my heart
is flying, flying, flying
away!
Come, come... (x4)
