Oh King , come to decorate your darling

Charanam

1.Oh King , come to decorate your darling,
Oh Lord who is very honest,
Come to this stage decorated with gems,
For decorating your lady who is like pearl,
For all the invitees are waiting,
And so Sir, come to decorate your darling.

2.Silk has been spread over the cushion,
In the stage which has been made for this,
With the eighteen type of musical accompaniments,
Which are played in civilized manner

3. Where from are you , from which country,
Where from have you come?
Due to being attracted in the pretty world,
I have come here to see the bewitcher.
