Like the waxing moon before my eyes,
O beauty that keeps growing!
Like a continuous story on my path,
O shadow that follows me!
How can there be a word like separation
between the two of us?
O blue flower blooming in my heart!
Like the waxing moon before my eyes,
O beauty that keeps growing!
Like a continuous story on my path,
O shadow that follows me!
For a long, long time, you and I
can live together without ever parting.
Holding the veena (lute) of love in our hands,
we can sing a sweet melody.
Come, come, fragrant honey that I touch,
life is meant for living!
In the home of my heart every day,
you are the golden lamp I light!
You are the soul united with mine!
Like the waxing moon before my eyes,
O beauty that keeps growing!
Like a continuous story on my path,
O shadow that follows me!
Once ten months have passed,
we can hear a lullaby.
The precious blessing of a child
will come into our waiting arms.
O mother-to-be, is the baby resting on your lap
a little boy like me,
or, swinging every day on the swing of thoughts,
a golden girl like you?
My love, you must whisper it in my ear!
Like the waxing moon before my eyes,
O beauty that keeps growing!
Like a continuous story on my path,
O shadow that follows me!
How can there be a word like separation
between the two of us?
O blue flower blooming in my heart!
Like the waxing moon before my eyes,
O beauty that keeps growing!
Like a continuous story on my path,
O shadow that follows me!
