Hey, like a finely sculpted statue,
you stand there swaying and flaunting your moves!
Bending, curving, and flirting playfully,
you are setting fire to my youthful heart!
Touch and discover, find them out!
Find out how many beauty spots I have!
Hold me and let go, keep teasing me!
Save a little bit for later!
Your beauty is bursting full,
help open the floodgates!
Embrace me quickly,
come on, quick, quick, quick, quick!
You are a moon caught on fire,
hold me close till the break of dawn!
The door is wide open,
come on, quick, quick, quick, quick!
Hey, like a finely sculpted statue,
you stand there swaying and flaunting your moves!
Bending, curving, and flirting playfully,
you are setting fire to my youthful heart!
Ussumu laresay, essumu laresay
Ussumu laresay yo yo

Ussumu laresay, essumu laresay
Ussumu laresay yo yo
Ussumu laresay, essumu laresay
Ussumu laresay yo yo
A vine heavy with fruit,
a firecracker that has been lit,
wrap your arms around me tight!
Bite me gently,
finish building our home,
inside there is thunder and lightning, come on!
Hey, my night's sleep is gone,
it has been days since I last slept!
I cannot hold my breath anymore,
come give me crisp kisses, tight and sweet!
Your touch makes everything hot,
my shyness has shattered into dust!
Enough of empty talk, boy,
come give me crisp kisses, tight and sweet!
{Ussumu laresay, essumu laresay

Hey, like a finely sculpted statue,
you stand there swaying and flaunting your moves!
Bending, curving, and flirting playfully,
you are setting fire to my youthful heart!
Hey-ey-ey oh-oh-oh!
Oh-ho-oh oh-oh ho-oh oh-oh!
Shake and dance right in front of me,
turn up the heat to your heart's desire!
Who is the fiery Tamilian?
Look at me, I am the worthy hero!
Tell me what the matter is, right away!
What is going on between you and me, Meenakshi?
Who is the fiery Tamilian?
Look at me, I am the worthy hero!
Hey, my moustache is twitching,
desire is bursting out,
something is happening, girl!
Just looking at you gives me shivers,
my hesitation melts away,
my whole body feels sweet, come on!
Hey my sweet darling,
shower me with kisses,
and pay them back with heavy interest!
Come give me crisp kisses, tight and sweet!
Hey, with your body shining like glass,
come right in front of me,
I am your queen!
Come give me crisp kisses, tight and sweet!
