ஆனந்த மயக்கம் அருகில் வந்த நெருக்கம்
ஆனந்த மயக்கம் அருகில் வந்த நெருக்கம்
ஆரம்பம் இதுதான் தொடர்கதையே
A blissful trance
The intimacy born of closeness
A blissful trance
The intimacy born of closeness
This is only the beginning
Is it a continuing story?
தொடர் கதையோ
A continuing story?
Female: No, it is a brand new story
இல்லை புதிய கதை
A blissful trance
The intimacy born of closeness
This is only the beginning
A continuing story
ஆனந்த மயக்கம் அருகில் வந்த நெருக்கம்
ஆரம்பம் இதுதான் தொடர்கதையே
Cheeks like chiseled diamonds
Shining when caught in the sunlight
As the sweet honey of love flows
Female: The thoughts within Krishna's heart
Leaping gently and slowly
As auspicious time comes together
{வைர வெட்டுக் கன்னங்கள்
வெய்யில் பட்டு மின்னுங்கள் காதல் தேனூற
கண்ணன் நெஞ்சில் எண்ணங்கள்
மெல்ல மெல்ல துள்ளுங்கள் காலம் கை கூட..} (2)
The breeze that drifted over flowers
Why has it paused after touching our bodies?
Female: The bond that held our eyes captive
Why has it stepped off the path?
மலர்களில் பட்டு வந்த தென்றல்
உடல்களை தொட்டு நின்றதென்னவோ
பெண் : விழிதனை கட்டி நின்ற சொந்தம்
வழிதனை விட்டு நின்றதென்னவோ
A blissful trance
The intimacy born of closeness
This is only the beginning
A continuing story
ஆனந்த மயக்கம் அருகில் வந்த நெருக்கம்
ஆரம்பம் இதுதான் தொடர்கதையே
Yellow radiance upon green grass
Make a bed and caress me
Come, come to celebrate
Male: Leave behind all hesitation and move forward
Intertwine with deep desire
Like a stream of overflowing passion

...................
The womanly beauty adorned with turmeric and fragrance
Has brought along good virtues and heritage, hasn't she?

Isn't heaven right here, accompanying as a companion?

{பச்சைப் புல்லில் மஞ்சங்கள்
மெத்தை இட்டுக் கொஞ்சுங்கள் வா வா கொண்டாட
அச்சம் விட்டுச் செல்லுங்கள்
இச்சை கொண்டு பின்னுங்கள் ஆசை நீரோட} (2)
A blissful trance
The intimacy born of closeness
This is only the beginning
A continuing story
மனம் மணம் மஞ்சள் கொண்ட பெண்மை
குணம் இனம் கொண்டு வந்ததல்லவோ
சுகம் வரும் என்று வந்த மன்னன்
துணை வரும் சொர்க்கம் இங்கே அல்லவோ
ஆனந்த மயக்கம் அருகில் வந்த நெருக்கம்
ஆரம்பம் இதுதான் தொடர்கதையே
ஆனந்த மயக்கம் அருகில் வந்த நெருக்கம்
ஆரம்பம் இதுதான் தொடர்கதையே
