The breeze came... uh, no...
It comes and clings close...
Near that chariot base, uh...
This is not bad...
Is it a young girl?
Oh no, a girl is clinging close?
This isn't right, stand back!
Trembling in fear, begging and pleading, uh...
Doing and making, rhyming with rhythm...
Inji inji inji inji...
I gave, I gave music,
I gave sweet honey, girl!
I gave, I gave music,
I gave sweet honey, girl!
With the wisdom sought through the ages,
I gave, I gave music,
I gave sweet honey, hey girl...
These joyful melodies, my parrot,
Listen to them right here, girl!
These dance moves never seen before, my parrot,
Come learn them from me!
I gave, I gave music,
I gave sweet honey, girl!
With the wisdom sought through the ages,
I gave, I gave music,
I gave sweet honey, hey girl...
Into the ears of the poor,
I am the artist who pours sweet honey, girl!
The hearts across the southern land,
I am the young man who wins them over through music, girl!
Just ask around the land about the feats
that I have accomplished in music here!
Resting right upon my tongue, girl,
ready to be sung,
are a thousand musical songs!
When the waves strike, to hold them back,
why did you ever think of building a dam?
Step aside, keep your distance!
You cross the line and provoke me,
why do you put on such airs, girl?
I gave, I gave music,
I gave sweet honey, girl!
With the wisdom sought through the ages,
I gave, I gave music,
I gave sweet honey, hey girl...
These joyful melodies, my parrot,
Listen to them right here... hey, hey!
These dance moves never seen before, my parrot,
Come learn them from me, hey hey!
Haven't you ever heard
the story of Kindan (famed folk ballad) from back in those days?
To a nation in distress, through his music,
it was NSK who gave meaningful thoughts, girl!
Arts exist solely to reform the nation—
that is the truth, girl!
Following that very artist,
I am one who walks his path, girl!
To tame me and capture me,
the little parrot flapped her wings,
Standing face to face right here,
when she sees this strong young bull,
her hands and feet tremble!
I gave, I gave music,
I gave sweet honey, girl!
With the wisdom sought through the ages,
I gave, I gave music,
I gave sweet honey, hey girl...
These joyful melodies, my parrot,
Listen to them right here... hey hey!
These dance moves never seen before, my parrot,
Come learn them from me, hey hee hee!
