They say a village girl came up the cardamom hills,
Like an unplucked flower, a young maiden stood there.
Female: Ah, ah, ah
Male: They say a village girl came up the cardamom hills,
Like an unplucked flower, a young maiden stood there.
Female: Ah, ah, ah
It is a night when the cold mist falls thick,
Female: Ah, ah
Male: And she has no blanket to wrap herself in!
Female: Ah, ah
It is a night when the cold mist falls thick,
And she has no blanket to wrap herself in!
Come hold me close, my love, should a flower wither away?
Without our hearts coming together, should we just stand apart?
They say a village girl came up the cardamom hills,
Like an unplucked flower, a young maiden stood there.
Aha, her eyes swoon with sweet enchantment,
Female: Ah, ah, ah
Male: Aha, the deer has arrived, knowing the forest well!
Female: Ah, ah, ah
Aha, her eyes swoon with sweet enchantment,
Aha, the deer has arrived, knowing the forest well!
Do you have the urge to hold her tight?
Do you have a mustache sharp as a knife?
If you do, let each man offer his shoulder,
Let us see whose neck the lovely garland falls upon!
If you do, let each man offer his shoulder,
Let us see whose neck the lovely garland falls upon!
She must find the right match,
For her youthful pulse is running hot!
The one who seeks to win her heart,
Who is he in this gathering crowd?
They say a village girl came up the cardamom hills,
Like an unplucked flower, a young maiden stood there.
Aha, thinking of you, my desire leaps with joy,
Aha, I have a deep longing, who can I tell it to?
Aha, thinking of you, my desire leaps with joy,
I have a deep longing, who can I tell it to?
There are drums ready to beat with full sound,
There is a matching rhythm for every tune!
Aha, for me, a flower withering here all alone,
If you come by my side as a partner, what else do I need?
Aha, aha, aha
Aha, for me, a flower withering here all alone,
If you come by my side as a partner, what else do I need?
A young girl's heart is fluttering,
Her mind is burning with desire!
Ah, what more can I say than this,
After catching these subtle hints?
Up on the cardamom hills,
Female: Yes!
Male: They say a village girl came,
Female: Yes!
Male: Like an unplucked flower,
Female: Yes!
Male: A young maiden stood there!
Female: Yes!
