I Won’t Let You Embrace!

I won’t let you embrace! I won’t let you drink the nectar from my lips! Why are you so lustful, young one of Nanda? I won’t let you embrace! I won’t let you drink the nectar from my lips! Unstained is the name of our family you will only bring us dishonor, Beloved of Laxmi, just stay away from me! I won’t let you embrace! I won’t let you drink the nectar from my lips! Once I see you, I feel like relishing you, love, tell me how am I to hold myself back! Playing with Narsaiyya’s lord, I wish to cross over to the other shore! I won’t let you embrace! I won’t let you drink the nectar from my lips!
