Come, sisters, let us adorn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn.
Come, sisters, let us adorn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn.
From heavens descended, a vision bright,
From heavens descended, bathing all in light,
As the moon beholds the *chakori's* flight,
Come, sisters, let us adorn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn.
See, her eyes, like daggers keen,
Cheeks like roses, lips between,
See, her eyes, like daggers keen,
Cheeks like roses, lips between,
Hands dyed gold, a hennaed sheen,
Hands dyed gold, a hennaed sheen,
Enchanting all, this vibrant scene.
Come, sisters, let us adorn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn.
Her body, sandalwood's soft embrace,
Her heart, a garden, blooming space,
Her body, sandalwood's soft embrace,
Her heart, a garden, blooming space,
Her love, a lover approaching pace,
Her love, a lover approaching pace,
A fragrant home, in this sacred place.
Come, sisters, let us adorn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn.
Her friends tease, she laughs aloud,
Flames bloom forth on her cheeks avowed,
Her friends tease, she laughs aloud,
Flames bloom forth on her cheeks avowed,
Her lover drunk, in a moment bowed,
Her lover drunk, in a moment bowed,
No peace, for her heart endowed.
Come, sisters, let us adorn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn.
From heavens descended, a vision bright,
From heavens descended, bathing all in light,
As the moon beholds the *chakori's* flight,
Come, sisters, let us adorn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn.
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn,
A maiden fair as the moon, reborn.
