Hoo ..hmm..haa…
Aasa kalavaniye enna sokka vecha
Aasa kalavaniye unna sutha vecha
Macha mavaraasava paarthaale
Kichu kichu enakulla
Mottu mottu rosavum malarndhenae
Azhagaa unakulla
Kodaari kannala pottu thaakki
Poraane en nenja pazhudhakki
Nee pora thikk ellaam kooda vaaren
Un kannil enn kanna edam maathi
Aasa kalavaniye enna sokka vecha
Aasa kalavaniye unna sutha vecha
Ennoda hero nee edhu senjaalum
Naa enna maranthu rasipene
En pera nee sonna silirthu pova
Ennoda ulagam nee dhaane
Kaala nee dhaan kannal enna
Vidura kombhu seevi
Kaaram pasu enna seiyum
Varuthey unna thedi
Kaalam pora saanjikkuven un tholula
Unna pothi paathukkuven en kannula
Saami pola poosa panni pappen naa unna
Kodaari kannala pottu thaakki
Poraane en nenja pazhudhakki
Nee pora thikk ellaam kooda vaaren
Un kannil enn kanna edam maathi
Aasa kalavaniye..ye
Aasa kalavaniye enna sokka vecha
Aasa kalavaniye unna sutha vecha
Macha mavaraasava paarthaale
Kichu kichu enakulla
Mottu mottu rosavum malarndhenae
Azhagaa unakulla
Kodaari kannala pottu thaakki
Poraane en nenja pazhudhakki
Nee pora thikk ellaam kooda vaaren
Un kannil enn kanna edam maathi
Ooh.. Hmm.. Haa...
O sweet thief of my heart, you enchanted me,
O sweet thief of my heart, you made me circle around you.
Just looking at my handsome prince with that lucky mole,
I feel a tickle deep inside.
Like a budding rose, I blossomed
so beautifully inside you.
Striking me down with your axe-sharp eyes,
he walks away, leaving my heart wrecked.
Wherever you go, in every direction, I will follow,
trading my eyes with yours.
O sweet thief of my heart, you enchanted me,
O sweet thief of my heart, you made me circle around you.
You are my hero, whatever you do,
I lose myself admiring you.
When you say my name, chills run through me,
you are my whole world, aren't you?
You are like a bull, and with your eyes
you sharpen your horns at me.
What can a gentle cow do?
She comes searching for you.
For the rest of time, I will lean on your shoulder,
I will protect and cherish you in my eyes,
and worship you like a god.
Striking me down with your axe-sharp eyes,
he walks away, leaving my heart wrecked.
Wherever you go, in every direction, I will follow,
trading my eyes with yours.
O sweet thief of my heart...
O sweet thief of my heart, you enchanted me,
O sweet thief of my heart, you made me circle around you.
Just looking at my handsome prince with that lucky mole,
I feel a tickle deep inside.
Like a budding rose, I blossomed
so beautifully inside you.
Striking me down with your axe-sharp eyes,
he walks away, leaving my heart wrecked.
Wherever you go, in every direction, I will follow,
trading my eyes with yours.
