ஆருயிரே என் ஆருயிரே
என் இதயம் என்றும் நீயே என்னுயிரே
ஆருயிரே என் ஆருயிரே
என் வாழ்வின் அர்த்தம் நீயே என்னுயிரே
Precious life, oh my precious life
You are forever my heart, my life
Precious life, oh my precious life
You are the meaning of my life, my life
உறவெனும் நூலிழையில்
ஊஞ்சல் போல ஆடினேன்
தொலைந்த என் நாட்கள் தேடி
தொலைந்து தானே போகிறேன்
On the thin thread called relationship
I swung like a swing
Searching for my lost days
I myself get lost
If pain becomes life here
An end alone becomes a blessing
வலி இங்கே வாழ்வானால்
முடிவொன்றே வரமாகும்
Precious life, oh my precious life
You are forever my heart, my life
ஆருயிரே என் ஆருயிரே
என் இதயம் என்றும் நீயே என்னுயிரே
Memories appear when I close my eyes
Days stretch long in tears
Like a bird with broken wings
I too become
கண் மூடினால் நினைவு தோன்றுதே
கண்ணீரிலே நாட்கள் நீளுதே
சிறகு முறிந்த பறவையாய்
நானும் ஆகிறேன்
Forgetting the thought of flying
I fall onto the ground
Every day a silent war
As I wage inside my heart
பறக்கும் நினைவை மறந்து நானே
தரையில் விழுகிறேன்
நித்தம் நித்தம் மெளன யுத்தம்
நெஞ்சுக்குள்ளே நான் போட
Precious life, oh my precious life
You are forever my heart, my life
ஆருயிரே என் ஆருயிரே
என் இதயம் என்றும் நீயே என்னுயிரே
Life is a mirage, my dear
Will it dissolve away like a dream?
Will all the days of talking and laughing show in memories?
Will the heart bear all the relationships separated by time?
My dear, do not be troubled
I will be there for you
வாழ்வென்பது கானல் நீரம்மா
கனவாகவே அது கலைந்து போகுமா
பேசி தீர்த்த நாளெல்லாம் நினைவில் தீருமா
காலம் பிரித்த உறவெல்லாம் இதயம் தாங்குமா
Precious life, oh my precious life
You are forever my heart, my life
Precious life, oh my precious life
You are the meaning of my life, my life
கண்ணே நீ கலங்காதே
நான் இருப்பேன் உனக்காக
On the thin thread called relationship
I swung like a swing
Searching for my lost days
I myself get lost
ஆருயிரே என் ஆருயிரே
என் இதயம் என்றும் நீயே என்னுயிரே
ஆருயிரே என் ஆருயிரே
என் வாழ்வின் அர்த்தம் நீயே என்னுயிரே
Precious life, oh my precious life
You are forever my heart, my life
உறவெனும் நூலிழையில்
ஊஞ்சல் போல ஆடினேன்
தொலைந்த என் நாட்கள் தேடி
தொலைந்து தானே போகிறேன்
ஆருயிரே என் ஆருயிரே
என் இதயம் என்றும் நீயே என்னுயிரே
