{ ஆனந்தம் ஆனந்தம்
பாடும் மனம் ஆசையில்
ஊஞ்சலில் ஆடும் } (2)
ஆயிரம் ஆயிரம் காலம்
இந்த ஞாபகம் பூமழை தூவும்
Joy sings joy
The heart swings in a cradle of desire
For thousands and thousands of ages
This memory will shower like a rain of flowers
காற்றினில் சாரல்
போல பாடுவேன் காதலைப்
பாடிப் பாடி வாழ்த்துவேன்
நீ வரும் பாதையில்
பூக்களாய்ப் பூத்திருப்பேன்
I will sing like a gentle drizzle in the wind
I will sing of love repeatedly and offer my blessings
I will lie blooming like flowers along the path you walk
ஆனந்தம் ஆனந்தம்
பாடும் மனம் ஆசையில்
ஊஞ்சலில் ஆடும்
Joy sings joy
The heart swings in a cradle of desire
மனதில் நின்ற
காதலியே மனைவியாக
வரும்போது சோகம் கூட
சுகமாகும் வாழ்க்கை இன்ப
வரமாகும்
When the beloved who resides in the heart
Comes to become one's wife
Even sorrow turns into sweet pleasure
Life becomes a blessed gift of bliss
உன் வாழ்வில்
செல்வங்கள் எல்லாம்
ஒன்றாகச் சோ்ந்திட
வேண்டும் பூவே உன்
புன்னகை என்றும்
சந்தோஷம் தந்திட
வேண்டும்
May all the riches in your life
Come together as one
Oh flower, may your smile forever
Bring complete happiness
{ ஆசைக் காதல்
கைகளில் சோ்ந்தால்
வாழ்வே சொா்க்கம் ஆகுமே } (2)
When cherished love joins hands in life
Life itself becomes heaven
ஆனந்தம் ஆனந்தம்
பாடும் மனம் ஆசையில்
ஊஞ்சலில் ஆடும்
Joy sings joy
The heart swings in a cradle of desire
இன்னும் நூறு ஜென்மங்கள்
சேர வேண்டும் சொந்தங்கள்
காதலோடு வேதங்கள்
ஐந்து என்று சொல்லுங்கள்
For another hundred lifetimes
These precious bonds must reunite
Along with the four sacred scriptures,
Proclaim that love is the fifth Veda
தென் பொதிகை சந்தனக்
காற்று உன் வாசல் வந்திட
வேண்டும் ஆகாய கங்கைகள்
வந்து உன் நெஞ்சில் பொங்கிட
வேண்டும்
May the sandalwood breeze of the southern Podhigai hills
Arrive at your doorstep
May the heavenly Ganges rivers arrive
{ கண்கள் கண்ட
கனவுகள் எல்லாம்
நிஜமாய் இன்று ஆனதே } (2)
All the dreams seen by the eyes
Have become real today
ஆனந்தம் ஆனந்தம்
பாடும் மனம் ஆசையில்
ஊஞ்சலில் ஆடும்
