Believe me when I say, this is pure heavenly bliss!
In this heaven, you are the rhythm by my side!
Welcome, my king, this is paradise!
Only if you come here will your thirst of desire be quenched.
The real celebration begins past thirty,
Look, right before you, the dancing bees are buzzing!

There is endless joy in talking day and night,
And here, I am the music that plays forever!

Just call out, and delight will come searching for you,
Ten million times, I will offer you romance!

Ten million times, I will offer you romance!
For you to watch my dance, for you to hold me in embrace,
