Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
I have become so many things,
And you are everything to me.
Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
Building a nest inside me, where do you stay?
Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
Embracing me in your beauty, you feast on kisses.
Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
Don't play hide-and-seek with me,
As you fly away like a butterfly.
Why... why, oh why?
In the circle where your shyness spills,
Why do you leave me standing still?
Why... why, oh why?
The river rushes into the sea,
The tree holds the myna on its shoulders,
The wind snaps the palm leaves,
The honey-seeking bee unites with its companion,
The clouds drift across the moon,
The waves play endlessly with the crab,
The strong scent of love fills the air,
Whenever I unite with you.
I have become so many things,
And you are everything to me.
Male: I have become so many things,
And you are everything to me.
Trees, plants, and vines,
A lap for the heart to rest,
A finger is enough to bite playfully,
In this land of gentle sulks,
Playful murmurs begin to rise,
As her rain-like voice chants soft words.
Pinching deep inside me,
Is your sharp, piercing gaze.
Spreading a bed of sand,
With blankets woven by the swimming waves,
On an island no one ever searches for,
Come, oh come, to live with me!
So many things...
Everything...
Golden specks of sunlight,
A thrilling burst of fireworks,
A blissful fortune shaped like desire,
An art that leaves one spellbound,
A flower laden with pollen,
This is her beautiful body.
In your eyes,
I want to see myself.
Male: To express your love,
I must string together brand-new words.
I don't even need myself,
To stay alive,
I only need you.
I have become so many things,
And you are everything to me.
Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
Building a nest inside me, where do you stay?
Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
Embracing me in your beauty, you feast on kisses.
Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
Colorful cuckoo, oh colorful cuckoo,
