Blushing deep, to his heart's delight,
In my chest, oh, in my chest, alight,
My heart it trembles, takes flight and sway,
As the parrot in the cage does say.
My heart it trembles, takes flight and sway,
As the parrot in the cage does say.
My Myna bird, my Myna, hear me now,
When you speak, oh, when you speak somehow,
As the parrot in the cage does say.
When you speak, oh, when you speak somehow,
As the parrot in the cage does say.
In my chest, oh, in my chest, alight,
As the parrot in the cage does say.

Adorn my ears with jewels' sweet chime,
Then watch my steps, the dance of time.
Adorn my ears with jewels' sweet chime,
Then watch my steps, the dance of time.
With a beat, a beat,
With a beat, a beat,
With a beat, a beat I move, slow and deep,
As the parrot in the cage does peep.
With a beat, a beat, I move, slow and deep,
As the parrot in the cage does peep.
In my chest, oh, in my chest, alight,
As the parrot in the cage does say.

You placed the bindi, a fiery spark,
From my eyes, sleep fled the dark.
You placed the bindi, a fiery spark,
From my eyes, sleep fled the dark.
In my tresses, in my tresses,
In my tresses, shadows and flames leap,
As the parrot in the cage does peep.
In my tresses, shadows and flames leap,
As the parrot in the cage does peep.
My Myna, when you speak, oh when you speak,
As the parrot in the cage does peep.

Since youth's arrival, a wicked game,
Cool waters now ignite the flame.

Cool waters now ignite the flame.
In the waters, in the waters,
In the waters, flames begin to glow,
As the parrot in the cage does know.
