Proa ruk kong rao mun baeb tho cha
Because my love matures slowly
Koy putana koy koy liang mun
Waiting for it to develop, taking care of it
Rod num lae pruan din, ma koy sai pbuey took took wun
I water it and loosen the soil, taking care of it every day
Laew suk wun ja ork pbai hai ter
And one day I'll give it to you
Proa ruk kong kao mun baeb tun chai
Because her love blooms early
Liang mai tao rai gor dai pon leree
It doesn't take long for it to mature
Jer ter mai koy nahn, sanit sanom lae koon keree
She didn't meet you for too long, after a while you got to know each other
Ter gor leree pbai gub kao
And you ended up going with her
* Yung mai tun arai, yung mai tun ja tho ruk gor thaai laew
Nothing became of it, it wasn't too long until your love died
Yung mai tun arai yung mai tun ja tho mun gor mee wee waew wa thong
Nothing happened yet, it never developed but instead you were facing trouble because
Sed kao, gor rao mun thong tho cha, gerd pbunha mai tun jai
You're finished with her, but my love is still developing slowly, there's a problem because it's not fast enough for you
Sed kao, gor rao tho mai tun chai, cha gern pbai ter mai ror
Finished with her, but my love is mature enough to use, it's too slow and you won't wait
Teung cha teung nahn mun gor riep roy
Even though it's long and slow it is steady
Ruk laew gor koy mai yom pood pbai
Even if I loved you I wouldn't say a thing
Hua roa hai mun tho, gor na mo ho muen mee krai
I'll laugh and watch it grow, rather than get angry when someone else
Ma thud na ao ter pbai
Takes you away
