Oh, don't say a single word!
Handsome boy, don't kill me with your charm!
When I hold you close, don't pull away!
Don't hold me back like a dam!
Oh, the creator Brahma
Made me soft like a flower!
Will you come to taste the honey on my lips?
Yet in your eyes,
He placed a burning fire!
Oh, I am burning because of you!
Oh, don't say a single word!
Beautiful girl, don't kill me with your charm!
When I hold you close, don't pull away!
Don't hold me back like a dam!
Oh, the creator Brahma
Made you soft like a flower!
Shall I come to taste the honey on your lips?
Yet in your eyes,
He placed a burning fire!
Oh girl, I am burning because of you!
My youth and my heart,
The moment I see you today,
Are all stirred up, boy, and I quiver!
Hard and soft consonants
Both belong to the Tamil tongue,
Yet it is your slender waist that I admire!
Mmm... full of mischief,
When you smiled, I fell completely for you!
Nothing in this entire town can match your worth!
Blending a touch of soft cotton
Into sacred bronze,
You are a sculpture crafted so beautifully!
Oh, don't say a single word!
Handsome boy, don't kill me with your charm!
Ah... when I hold you close, don't pull away!
Don't hold me back like a dam!
Mmmmm...
Thera thera thara thara
Thara roora roora...
Thera thera thara thara...
For our lips,
My girl, to unite as one,
They long and draw closer together!
On the shores of our youth,
As a storm arrives to tease us,
The distance between us fades away!
Whenever you smile, across your cheeks
A blush of color paints itself,
Oh beautiful, colorful parrot!
At times, thinking of you,
My heart searches longing for you...
Oh stop it, you have completely trapped me!
Oh, don't say a single word!
Female: Handsome boy, don't kill me... ah...
Male: Hey, when I hold you close, don't pull away!
Female: Don't hold me back like a dam!
