To taste so sweet, so sweet,
just once,
will you give me a kiss?
Will you give me? Will you give me?
To leave a deep mark,
will you take pleasure again and again?
Will you make your mark the moment I show you?
Will you speak sweetly as we talk?
Will you pluck a kiss the moment I ask?
Will you hold me so tight that even the blanket feels shy?
Will you hold me? Will you hold me?
To taste so sweet, so sweet,
just once,
will you give me a kiss?
...
Running my fingers through your hair,
I completely come undone.
When my eyelashes brush against yours,
I am wounded by your love.
Oh, keeping a love potion in your eyes,
you chased and captured me.
With the petals of your lips,
lay out a feast,
and nourish your desire all night long.
Build a dam between our hearts,
and play in the fire of my sari.
Play with me, play with me.
To taste so sweet, so sweet,
just once,
will you give me a kiss?
...
Growing feverish from the heat of your body,
I tilted and surrendered.
With one half of your soul's warmth,
I joined you to keep away the chill.
Oh walking fire, oh walking fire,
you whose body is sculpted in the fire of kisses!
I lived upon your iron chest,
and tasted your sweet, sugarcane sweat.
I will pour out my desire and modesty,
and blossom for you until the very end of your life.
I will blossom, I will blossom.
To taste so sweet, so sweet,
just once,
will you give me a kiss?
To leave a deep mark,
will you take pleasure again and again?
Will you make your mark the moment I show you?
Will you speak sweetly as we talk?
Will you pluck a kiss the moment I ask?
Will you hold me so tight that even the blanket feels shy?
Will you hold me? Will you hold me?
Mm mm mm mm mm mmm
Mm mm mm mmm mm mm
Mm mm mm mm mm mmm
Mm mm mm mmm mm mm
