A flower of seven bright colors,
I see,
and I eagerly wait.
Like a butterfly,
I transformed,
and lost my balance.
Like a painting, my eyelid
draws your picture,
as a brush of love.
Male: My darling, into this house called
my heart, you stepped in,
without paying any rent.
{There is no one else with me,
you alone dwell in my eyes,
all my needs are with you,
choose whatever you wish.} (2)
Haa… aaa… aa… aaa… aa… (3)
Haa aaa…
You are a lover of the arts,
and I am the reader of your love.
You are a solitary soul,
and I am your fortress of love.
O gentle bird I held close,
you embraced me with your wings.
Female: Like a waxing crescent in my heart,
you sprouted within this girl's soul.
Oho… oo… oo…
Oh… ooo… ooo… ooo…
{There is no one else with me,
you alone dwell in my eyes,
all my needs are with you,
choose whatever you wish.} (2)
Oh, a flower of seven bright colors,
I see,
and I eagerly wait.
Like a butterfly,
I transformed,
and lost my balance.
{There is no one else with me,
you alone dwell in my eyes,
all my needs are with you,
choose whatever you wish.} (2)
