"How far can we go?"
You must tell me,
that is what I keep asking you, over and over...
"Sweet honeyed kisses alone
are enough," you say,
so I walk away without touching you...
In the dreams of so many people,
you walk around every single day.
Yet the only man who will ever appear
in your own dreams will always be me.
O gentle breeze, do not blow!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh...
O gentle breeze, do not blow!
For I am the fan here to cool you.
You are standing right inside my home;
unable to believe it, I pinched myself.
You are standing in the garden;
mistaking you for a flower, I came to pluck you...
Garlands of praise,
groves flowing with sweetness,
I have seen them all; why did I follow you?
Huge cheques and golden treasures,
I do not want them; I said I only want you,
my love...
With yesterday, my restless haste
turned into a gentle ember and fell asleep.
Into the breeze, all my anger
turned into speck of dust and blew away.
I, who rarely looked at anyone,
I, who rarely spoke to anyone,
feeling that you and I are one in my life,
because you come to me every day,
because you offer me your shoulder,
I have become a strong and confident woman.
My love...
Ho ho hoh...
"How far can we go?"
You must tell me,
that is what I keep asking you, over and over.
"Sweet honeyed kisses,
only those,
are enough," you say,
so I walk away without touching you.
To reject a young man like you
without accepting him in my heart would be a mistake.
I saw your rare and pure heart,
and your noble courage as you look into my eyes and speak.
O gentle breeze, do not blow!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh...
O gentle breeze, do not blow!
For I am the fan here to cool you.
Ruth thu thu ruth thu ru rooo
Ruth thu thu ruth thu ru rooo
Ruth thu thu ruth thu ru rooo
Ruth thu thu ruth thu ru rooo
Yee... yeeee... yeee... aa...
