Hey... Ararara rey rey rey rey
Ararara rey rey rey rey
Ararara rey rerey rerey rey rey rey
Taking a gun in hand,
and two bullets in my pocket,
on my way to hunt a crane,
though it escaped and flew away,
what was it that shot me? Her eyes!
This young girl's eyes, oh her eyes!
What was it that shot me? Her eyes!
This young girl's eyes, oh her eyes!
Taking a gun in hand,
and two bullets in my pocket...
Hey, taking a gun in hand...
On so many hunting trips,
I have shot down all kinds of prey,
but I left only you untamed!
Pure gold that speaks through touch,
you drew near and
tied me up captive in your silk saree!
Like a Thanjavur temple chariot walking,
swaying gracefully, she comes straight toward me.
Singing a rhythmic folk tune,
she brings a melody that touches the heart.
High above the white clouds,
I will set up a silver swing for you.
Tying silk tassels to it,
beat the drum and strike the rhythm!
Taking a gun in hand,
and two bullets in my pocket,
on my way to hunt a crane,
though it escaped and flew away,
what was it that shot me? Her eyes!
This young girl's eyes, oh her eyes!
What was it that shot me? Her eyes!
This young girl's eyes, oh her eyes!
My cousin walking all alone—
there is nothing wrong with that!
My very soul circles around you, singing.
Like a parrot flying alone,
wishing to wander as a pair,
every single day,
my heart pines and aches!
I long for us to be together;
if I speak my mind, won't your heart soften?
Precious time has slipped away like gold;
if we unite, won't our sorrows end?
Cherish it, and it is a rich bunch of bananas;
neglect it, and it is just dried banana fiber!
Take that fiber, string fresh flowers,
and weave a wedding garland to place on me!
Taking a gun in hand,
and two bullets in my pocket,
on my way to hunt a crane,
though it escaped and flew away,
what was it that shot me? Her eyes!
This young girl's eyes, oh her eyes!
What was it that shot me? Her eyes!
This young girl's eyes, oh her eyes!
