A tinkling, a tinkling, anklets softly chime,
A tinkling, a tinkling, marking passing time.
Chime, chime, little anklets,
A tinkling, a tinkling, in rhythmic rhyme.
A tinkling, a tinkling, a feeling sublime.

The anklet's echo, a resonant call,
Awakens slumber where shadows fall.
The anklet's echo, a resonant call,
Awakens slumber, embracing all.
The flute of the heart begins to play,
A tinkling, a tinkling, come what may.
A tinkling, a tinkling, at the break of day.

Spring arrives, dancing in the yard,
Shame retreats, where eyes are starred.
Spring arrives, dancing, a joyous art,
Shame retreats, with a loving heart.
A brimming vessel of nectar's sway,
A tinkling, a tinkling, come what may.
A tinkling, a tinkling, lighting the way.

The river journeys, embraces the sea,
Each wave is dancing, wild and free.
The river journeys, embraces the sea,
Each wave is dancing, wild to be.
The beloved overflows, in joyful spree,
A tinkling, a tinkling, eternally.
The flute of the heart, eternally.
A tinkling, a tinkling, eternally.
A tinkling, a tinkling, for you and me.
