கோடை கால குளிர் காற்று
நீ பாலைவனத்தில் வந்த நீருற்று
A cool breeze in summer time
You are a water spring in the desert
கோடை கால குளிர் காற்று
நீ பாலைவனத்தில் வந்த நீருற்று
A cool breeze in summer time
You are a water spring in the desert
தெருவில் நின்ற கவிக்கு
நீ தென்றலாய் வந்த புதுப்பாட்டு
To the poet standing on the street
You came as a new song like a gentle breeze
கானல் நீரில் நான் வாழ்ந்தேன்…
I lived in a mirage
கானல் நீரில் நான் வாழ்ந்தேன்
நனையாமல் நதியில் கரை சேர்த்தேன்
என் பக்கத்துணையாய் இருந்து
கொஞ்சுவதே இன்னும் இன்பம்
I lived in a mirage
I reached the riverbank without getting wet
Being my companion by my side
Cuddling is even greater joy
அடி பெண்ணே
உன்னை கண்டால் இன்பம் கூடுதடி
என்ன மாயம் செஞ்ச…
Oh girl
My joy increases when I see you
What magic did you cast?
வாழும் வாழ்வு சில காலம்
அதில் மீதி நாள் முழுக்க நீ வேணும்
The life we live is short
In that, I want you for all the remaining days
வாழும் வாழ்வு சில காலம்
அதில் மீதி நாள் முழுக்க நீ வேணும்
The life we live is short
In that, I want you for all the remaining days
ஆடையாக எனை சேர்த்து
உன் அங்கம் முழுவதும் போத்தோனும்
Hold me close like clothing
I feel like adorning your entire body
பாஷ இதழ் மொழிகள் மீண்டும்…
The language of lips again
பாஷ இதழ் மொழிகள் மீண்டும்
என் மேனி தவழ விட வேணும்
The language of lips again
Must be allowed to crawl over my body
உந்தன் விழி பார்வையிலே
எந்தன் வழி போக இன்பம் பம்… பம்…
In the gaze of your eyes
It is joy to go on my way
அடி பெண்ணே
உன்னை கண்டால் இன்பம் கூடுதடி
என்ன மாயம் செஞ்ச
Oh girl
My joy increases when I see you
What magic did you cast?
