ஆயிரம் முத்தம் தருவேன்...
I will give a thousand kisses...
ஆ...
Ah...
ஆனால் உனக்கல்ல...
But not to you...
ஆஅ...
Ohh
ஆயிரம் முத்தம் தருவேன் தருவேன்
ஆனால் உனக்கல்ல
நீ ஒரு குழந்தை என்றால்
நானும் தருவேன் மெய்யாக
முத்தம் தருவேன் மெய்யாக
I will give a thousand kisses, I will give
But not to you
If you were a child
I too would truly give them
I would truly give kisses
ஓஹோஹோ ஓஹோஹோ ஓஹோ ஹோ
தாயாய் மாறிய பெண்ணைப் போலே
பேசுவதழகல்ல
நீ ஒரு குமரி என்பதை மறந்து
நிற்பதும் சரியல்ல
அங்கே நிற்பதும் சரியல்ல
Ohoho ohoho oho ho
Like a woman who turned into a mother
Speaking so is not charming
Forgetting that you are a young maiden
Standing there is not right
Standing over there is not right
மலரைப் போலே சிரிப்பவளே
என் மனதை தொட்டு ஆட வைத்தாய்
மலரைப் போலே சிரிப்பவளே
என் மனதை தொட்டு ஆட வைத்தாய்
Oh girl who smiles like a flower
You touched my heart and made it dance
Oh girl who smiles like a flower
You touched my heart and made it dance
பருவக் காற்றில் ஆடி நின்றேன்
நான் பாடாத பாட்டை பாட வைத்தாய்
பருவக் காற்றில் ஆடி நின்றேன்
நான் பாடாத பாட்டை பாட வைத்தாய்
பாடாத பாட்டை பாட வைத்தாய்
I stood swaying in the seasonal breeze
You made me sing a song I had never sung before
I stood swaying in the seasonal breeze
You made me sing a song I had never sung before
Made me sing a song I had never sung before

ஆனால் உனக்கல்ல
I will give a thousand kisses, I will give
But not to you
நீ ஒரு குமரி என்பதை மறந்து
நிற்பதும் சரியல்ல
அங்கே நிற்பதும் சரியல்ல
Forgetting that you are a young maiden
Standing there is not right
Standing over there is not right
இனித்திடும் இரவைப் பார்த்து விட்டேன்
அதில் ஏதோ ஏதோ படித்து விட்டேன்
இனித்திடும் இரவைப் பார்த்து விட்டேன்
அதில் ஏதோ ஏதோ படித்து விட்டேன்
I have witnessed the sweet night
I have read something mysterious in it
I have witnessed the sweet night
I have read something mysterious in it
என்னை உனக்கே கொடுத்து விட்டேன்
இந்த இரவுக்குப் பெருமை அளித்து விட்டேன்
என்னை உனக்கே கொடுத்து விட்டேன்
இந்த இரவுக்குப் பெருமை அளித்து விட்டேன்
இரவுக்குப் பெருமை அளித்து விட்டேன்

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song portrays a romantic and playful exchange where the protagonist lightheartedly teases his lover. He remarks that he would shower a thousand kisses if she were a little child, but gently reminds her that as a young woman, she should embrace her maidenly grace rather than speaking sternly like a mother figure. As the song unfolds, the tone shifts into sweet romantic devotion. He confesses how her flower-like smile made his heart dance and awakened unspoken feelings within him. Ultimately, in the quiet romance of the night, he surrenders his heart completely to her, elevating their love and bestowing glory upon the night itself.
