to cause a constant flow of pleasure
Explanation:
I guess from your previous question that you are perhaps talking about the pleasure caused by sound made by birds. If this is the case, you may like to translate the sentence in this way:

The chirping of birds causes a constant flow of pleasure.

I think we should resist the temptation of translating "ears" here as it is understood and could also amount as literal.

Hope this helps.
