...
அடிக்குதே........
மழை ரெண்டு நெஞ்சோட
துடிக்குதே.......
அனல் துண்டு பஞ்சோட
It beats down...
The rain, alongside both our hearts
It throbs frantically...
Like a piece of fire touching cotton
தரையிலே.........
கால் தாளம் போட்டிருக்க
மரங்கொத்தி பறவையாய்
மனசை செதிலாக்கும் பார்வை
On the ground...
My feet tap a steady rhythm
Like a woodpecker bird
Your gaze sculpts and chips away at my heart
உலகமே ஒரு நொடி
உருண்டு கையோட சேர
நான் வாங்கி வந்த
வார்த்தை எல்லாம் மழையில் கரைஞ்சோட
The entire world, in just a single second
Rolls down to join my open hands
Female: All the words I had brought with me
Have dissolved and washed away in the rain
அடி சாரலே......ஏ......
பனி தூரலே......ஏ.....ஏஹ்....
Oh, striking drizzle!
Oh, misty shower!
உன் பார்வையில் தேய்கிறேன்
இருவர் :
உனக்குள்ளே நானே
குடை சாய்கிறேன் சாய்கிறேன்
உயிர் வாழ்கிறேன்.....
I wear away under your gaze
Both: Deep inside you, I
Lean like an umbrella, leaning close
And I come alive...
அடி சாரலே......ஏ......
பனி தூரலே......ஏ.....ஏஹ்....
உன் பார்வையில் தேய்கிறேன்
இருவர் :
உனக்குள்ளே நானே
குடை சாய்கிறேன் சாய்கிறேன்
உயிர் வாழ்கிறேன்.....
நன நனனா நன நன நானா
Oh, striking drizzle!
Oh, misty shower!
Female: I wear away under your gaze
Both: Deep inside you, I
Lean like an umbrella, leaning close
And I come alive...
Male: Nana nananaa nana nana naanaa

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song captures a deeply passionate and sensory moment of romance set against the backdrop of rain. The lyrics evoke the physical and emotional intensity of falling in love, where simple rain drops match the racing hearts of the lovers. The intense gaze of the beloved is described as a force that melts away words and carves into the heart, making the vast world feel small enough to fit within one's palms. As the rain falls, the lovers shed their reservations and dissolve into each other's presence. Metaphors like leaning like an umbrella symbolize shelter, emotional surrender, and finding new life within one another's embrace.
