This Is How I Bewitched Him

This is how I bewitched him, friend, I rolled over him in our love play!
'No, no!' cried he as he tried to flee, and he cried out for his mother!
But I clasped him passionately to my breasts!
This is how I bewitched him, friend, I rolled over him in our love play!

I drank his eyes with my eyes, his lips with mine,
I drank him as if he was the elixir of Immortality!
Amorously, I took him on my breasts
I enjoyed myself doing what he wanted me to do!
This is how I bewitched him, friend,I rolled over him in our love play!

Playing ecstatically with the Narsaiyya's Lord
I could hardly make out the world around me!
This is how I bewitched him, friend, I rolled over him in our love play!
