What happened... what happened...
Suddenly, a moon grabbed my shirt...
Two clouds became my feet...
I am struggling helplessly!
I am struggling helplessly!
What is this, what is this?
Has love come here to dance?
The whole town is celebrating!
The whole town is celebrating!
What is this, what is this?
Is love tossing me around like a ball?
Oh girl, into something strange,
I am turning...
And because of that, I myself
Am turning into you!
Oh, a glance, a glance, your glance...
Male: Turned into a whirlwind!
Chorus: Oh, wind, wind, a whirlwind!
Male: It took over my soul!
Chorus: My soul ran and ran away,
Male: And went so far away!
Did you see it, did you see it, did you see it?
Did you give it back to her?
I am struggling helplessly!
I am struggling helplessly!
What is this, what is this?
Has love come here to dance?
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Hey thaale thaale thaale
Hey thaale thaale thaalele
Oh ho, when you looked at me, I became the scorching sun!
Oh ho ho... I myself, I myself!
When I began to sweat, you became the cool mist!
Oh ho ho... you yourself, you yourself!
You scorched me, girl, you scorched me!
You scorched me with an electric fire!
You touched me, girl, you touched me!
You touched ninety percent of me!
You are the surging sea,
And I am just the playful foam!
I have ended up like this,
Tell me why, oh girl, tell me why!
Tell me, please tell me, tell me!
I am struggling helplessly!
I am struggling helplessly!
What is this, what is this?
Has love come here to dance?
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
Thakkungu thakkungu thak kungu
Thakkungu thakkungu thak kungu
Oh ho ho...
On whose stem did you bloom into a flower?
Oh ho, you, only you!
You became the stem so I could bloom!
Oh ho ho, you, only you!
Chorus: Hey!
You stood by me, girl, you stood by me!
Leaning in and sweeping my breath away!
Chorus: Hey hey!
I found comfort, girl, I found comfort,
Leaning gently upon your eyes!
I can no longer find myself here,
I have become a shadow there with you!
I am losing myself completely!
Tell me why, oh girl, tell me why!
Tell me, please tell me, tell me!
I am struggling helplessly!
I am struggling helplessly!
What is this, what is this?
Has love come here to dance?
The whole town is celebrating!
The whole town is celebrating!
What is this, what is this?
Is love tossing me around like a ball?
Oh girl, into something strange,
I am turning...
And because of that, I myself
Am turning into you!
Oh, a glance, a glance, your glance...

Did you see it, did you see it, did you see it?
Did you give it back to her?
