Like the anklets chime, a sweet cascade,
As the koel sings deep in the glade.
You are the charmer, I the serpent’s grace,
Play your flute, and set my soul ablaze.
You are the charmer, I the serpent’s sway,
Play your flute, and let the music play.
Of thirsty hearts, our ancient tale,
Of love's echoes, that will never fail.
I dance to your tune, my voice will soar,
Oh charmer, you are the charmer evermore.

In my eyes, you dwell, upon my lips you rest,
This distance, now, I cannot bear, I'm blessed.
Embrace me close, within your arms I crave,
Hold me near, why do you make me slave?
In my eyes, you dwell, upon my lips you rest,
This distance, now, I cannot bear, I'm blessed.
Embrace me close, within your arms I crave,
Hold me near, why do you make me slave?
I long to be with you, near you evermore.
I dance to your tune, my voice will soar,
Oh charmer, you are the charmer evermore.

Oh, you are the charmer, I the serpent's soul.
To live within your arms, to walk your road,
You are my love, my ultimate goal.
Within my heart's song, in my sight you reside,
Without you, living is a heavy tide.
To live within your arms, to walk your road,
You are my love, my ultimate goal.
Within my heart's song, in my sight you reside,
Without you, living is a heavy tide.
Never leave me, my companion, evermore.
I dance to your tune, my voice will soar,
Oh charmer, you are the charmer evermore.

Oh, you are the charmer, I the serpent's sway,
Play your flute, and let the music play.
Of thirsty hearts, our ancient tale,
Of love's echoes, that will never fail.
I dance to your tune, my voice will soar,
Oh charmer, you are the charmer evermore.
You are the charmer, I the serpent's soul, you are the charmer, I the serpent's soul.
