It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign.
Five fingers steeped in ghee, the business now will thrive,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign.

The face transformed, the hues now changed, a fortune now bestowed,
The face transformed, the hues now changed, a fortune now bestowed.
The sun will rise at night, and stars by day will be showed,
In palaces of wealth, in palaces of wealth,
a court of beauty will be known,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign.

The dark cell, the jail, what watch, what station now hold sway?
The dark cell, the jail, what watch, what station now hold sway?
None can now restrain me, none can now hold me in their bay,
He may threaten, he may threaten, I'll make the station house turn cold,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign.

I will dance tonight, adorned in anklets, bangles, and a jeweled crown,
I will dance tonight, adorned in anklets, bangles, and a jeweled crown,
The world itself will tremble, by the rhythm I lay down,
As lightning, upon hearts, as lightning, upon hearts,
I shall fall, my love, my crown,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign.
Five fingers steeped in ghee, the business now will thrive,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign,
It has bloomed, it has bloomed, it has bloomed, my love, my beloved's reign.
