ஆத்தி அடி ஆத்தி போட்டா உயிர் மாத்தி
ஆமா அவளுக்கு தெரிஞ்சு
அட அவன்தான் அழகுன்னு புரிஞ்சி
அவ பார்த்த செருக்குல
யாரும் பொழைக்கல
கூற பார்வை நூரா பாயும்
Oh my goodness!
She transformed my life completely.
Yes, she knows it well,
Ah, realizing that she herself is beauty personified.
In the proud gaze she cast,
No one survived.
Her sharp glance pierces through like a hundred arrows.
கண்ணு படும் ராசாத்தி
உன்னோட கண் அழக பாராட்டி
வெச்சு இருந்தேன் காப்பாத்தி
என் நெஞ்ச அள்ளிக்கிட்ட ஏமாத்தி
Oh princess, who might attract the evil eye,
Praising the beauty of your eyes.
Female: I kept it safe and protected,
Yet you stole my heart away by tricking me.
ஆணை வரும் பாதையிலே
அப்பாவி எறும்புக சாகிறதா
ஆச வரும் பாதையில
அம்மாடி நீயும் நானும் சாகிறதா
But on the path that comes,
Are innocent ants dying?
On the path where desire arrives,
Oh dear, are you and I dying too?
ஒரே இடம் நிக்க சொன்ன
மீன் இங்கே நீந்தனுமே
காதலிச்சு வாழ சொன்னா
நான் கொஞ்சம் சாகணுமே
If asked to stand in one place,
A fish here must still swim.
If asked to love and live,
I must die a little bit.
ஏ கண்ணு படும் ராசாத்தி
உன்னோட கண் அழக பாராட்டி
வெச்சு இருந்தேன் காப்பாத்தி
என் நெஞ்ச அள்ளிக்கிட்ட ஏமாத்தி
Hey princess, who might attract the evil eye,
Praising the beauty of your eyes.
