You lit a sweet
fire in me and left,
With a single kiss,
you sparked a war and left!
Burning and scorching hot,
a fever is raging in me,
With every touch,
my hands are boiling,
Because of you, girl, all because of you!
Trembling and pounding,
my body is burning,
Sparkling bright,
stars are flying around,
Because of you, girl, all because of you!
You lit a sweet
fire in me and left,
With a single kiss,
you sparked a war and left!
For the very first time,
you made me slip,
You made me smile all alone,
You came and stood by my side,
You shared a place on the soft bed,
You showed me a whole new world,
You broke through a woman's shyness,
You unlocked the body's secret code,
You unlatched the door to this flower-like body,
...
With just two petals,
you are a wondrous flower,
Coming like a bee searching for nectar,
I got trapped in the fire!
From far away,
you are a bouquet of flowers,
But when you come close,
you are an earthquake!
Bearing all three sweet fruits as one,
you are a tree made of sugar!
I came with a basket to pick fruit,
only to end up trapped like a caged parrot!
If asked what supreme bliss is,
I would say it is a woman!
If asked what great sorrow is,
I would say it is a woman!
You made my body melt,
You made me dissolve right before your eyes,
With just a touch, you made me lose myself,
You drenched me in a rain of fire!
...
Oh, love is just like a knife,
it stabs again and again to kill!
Even when both eyes act as a shield
to block it, love still triumphs!
Where can you ever find
desire without any wounds?
Without the strike of a matchstick,
no lamp can ever light up!
A man's heart is like a wild beast,
it always longs to hunt!
Yet when a woman's body comes near,
it gets wounded and turns away!
Desire will always
be just like electricity,
Whenever our hands touch,
our bodies shatter to dust!
You crossed every distance,
You stirred a spark at my waist,
You showered me with a rain of pollen,
You made me feel born anew!
You lit a sweet
fire in me and left,
With a single kiss,
you sparked a war and left!
Burning and scorching hot,
a fever is raging in me,
With every touch,
my hands are boiling,
Because of you, girl, all because of you!
Trembling and pounding,
my body is burning,
Sparkling bright,
stars are flying around,
Because of you, girl, all because of you!
