ஆஅ.......லலலலலலலல லலலலலலலல

நம் இருவருக்கும் இளமை
நாம் இருக்கும் இடம் தனிமை
இன்று எனக்குமிது புதுமை
சொல்ல இடந்தருமா
எந்தன் பெண்மை
லலலலல லலலலல லலலலல லலலலல
ஹ்ம்ம்ம் ஹ்ம்ம் ஹ்ம்ம்
Both of us possess youth,
The place where we are is secluded..aa...aa..

இளமைக்கு அழகல்ல தூக்கம்
என் நெஞ்சில் ஒரு கோடி ஏக்கம்
இளமைக்கு அழகல்ல தூக்கம்
என் நெஞ்சில் ஒரு கோடி ஏக்கம்
தழுவாமல் தணியாது யார்க்கும்
தள்ளாடி மனம் தள்ளாடி
துணை தேடி பார்க்கும்
லலலலல லலலலல லலலலல லலலலல
ஹ்ம்ம்ம் ஹ்ம்ம் ஹ்ம்ம்
Sleep does not suit youth,
There are a ten million longings in my heart.

இடை என்னும் நன்நூலின் பாடம்
இது தானே நீ கேட்க்கும் காலம்
அழகான இடம் காணும் நேரம்
அடையாள குறி போட வேண்டும்
The lesson of the waist, thin like the Nannool text,
Is this not the time you have been asking for?
At the moment of beholding the beautiful spot,
A mark of possession must be placed.
