Just to see you, to see you,
I came running all the way, Janaki!
That graceful swan-like walk of yours,
Stepping to a rhythm, gives me goosebumps, Janaki!
Ah, just to catch a glimpse of you every day,
I stood by the train station, Janaki!
When the train stopped, right past me
You would walk by every single day, Janaki!
I gave it all...
I came all the way...
I gave it all,
I gave you my whole life!
I came all the way,
With my heart full of desire,
Oh beautiful string of flowers,
My heart belongs only to you,
There isn't a single day I don't long for you, my precious!
Oh girl, into my life,
You came like a goddess, Janaki!
Oh girl, into my life,
You came like a goddess, Janaki!
Ah, just to see you, to see you,
I came running all the way, Janaki!
That graceful swan-like walk of yours,
Stepping to a rhythm, gives me goosebumps, Janaki!
I waited, I waited,
For so long, I waited,
Just once, with you,
I waited to talk,
You made me wait,
But that is alright, my darling...
I heard, I heard,
I heard the town gossip,
Saying you would never come,
I heard all that talk,
Yet you came and gave yourself to me,
You gave me your love, my dear!
"You and I are one,"
Is what God himself told me!
When the sky and the earth meet,
Isn't it as falling raindrops?
The drizzle has arrived,
My search has ended,
What else could I ever need?
When the train stopped, right past me
You would walk by every single day, Janaki!
That graceful swan-like walk of yours,
Stepping to a rhythm, gives me goosebumps, Janaki!
Ah, just to see you, to see you,
I came running all the way, Janaki!
That graceful swan-like walk of yours,
Stepping to a rhythm, gives me goosebumps, Janaki!
