அலைக்கா லைக்கா
ஆப்பிளின் மேக்கா கன்னங்கள்
ரெண்டும் ஸ்ட்ராபெர்ரி கேக்கா
அலைக்கா லைக்கா ஆப்பிளின்
மேக்கா கன்னங்கள் ரெண்டும்
ஸ்ட்ராபெர்ரி கேக்கா
Alaikaa laikka, are you made like an Apple device?
Are both your cheeks like a strawberry cake?
Alaikaa laikka, are you made like an Apple device?
Are both your cheeks like a strawberry cake?
சனா சனா ஓ சனா
நீ சுவாசம் கொண்ட மூனா
கனா கனா நீ தானா
கண்டாடும் கண்கள் தானா
Sana sana oh Saanaa
You are the moon breathing life
Are you the dream itself?
Are these the eyes that dance upon seeing you?
பிலிம் காட்டியே
பிலிம் காட்டியே பீலிங்ஸ்
ஏத்தாதே அனல் மூட்டியே
கனல் கூட்டியே சுட்டு
பொசுக்காதே
Don't put on a show and raise my emotions
Don't light a fire, raise heat, and burn me down
பெண்
: மானே மானே
ஹனி மூனும் எங்கே
மானே ஜானே ஜானே
அது காட்டுபக்கம் தானே
தேனே தேனே இது
தித்திப்பான தேனே
தீவே தீவே இனி முற்றும்
இசை தானே
Oh my love, oh my love
Where is our honeymoon, my love?
Oh my darling, oh my darling
Is it towards the forest region?
Oh sweet honey, sweet honey
This is sweet honey indeed
Oh island, oh island
Now it is completely music alone...
என் நெற்றி
பொட்டில் முத்தம்
வைக்க உயிரை
வைக்கின்றானே
நான் பிச்சு பிச்சு
பேசும் தமிழை
கவிதை என்கின்றானே
To place a kiss on my forehead
He puts his very life on the line
My broken, childish Tamil speech
He praises as beautiful poetry
நீ மைனர் இல்லை
மேஜர் என்று சொல்லும்
உந்தன் நெஞ்சம் நீ மேஜர்
ஆனால் நானும் கூட மைனர்
ஆவேன் கொஞ்சம்
Your heart says you are not a minor but a major
If you become a major, then I too
Will become a little minor for you
From now on, he alone is the companion meant for me
இனி அவனே தான்
அவனே தான் எனக்கான
நண்பன் முன் இருந்தாலும்
முகம் காட்டி சிரிக்காத
கள்வன்
Even when standing in front, he is a thief who steals without showing his face or smiling
What trouble is it for the breeze?
ஏ காற்றுகென்ன
கஷ்டம் பனி பூவுக்கும்
தான் இஷ்டம் இதில்
தேனுக்கில்லை நஷ்டம்
சேர வா வா நீ வா
Even the dew flower likes it
There is no loss for the honey in this
Come, join me, come on, come
Alaikaa laikka, are you made like an Apple device?

பிலிம் காட்டியே பீலிங்ஸ்
ஏறாதோ அனல் மூட்டியே
கனல் கூட்டியே சுட்டு
பொசுக்காதே
Won't light a fire, raise heat, and burn me down?
Inside the heart you touch and speak to
நீ தொட்டு பேசும்
ஹார்ட்டுக்குள்ளே மைனஸ்
டிகிரி வெப்பம் நீ ஆக்சிஜன்னில்
சுவாசித்தாலே வாசம் சேர்க்கும்
நுட்பம்
There is a warmth of minus degrees
If you breathe in oxygen
It adds fragrance through a fine magic
Dwain dwain dwain dwain
...........................
Standing right beside me
என் பக்கம் வந்து
நிற்கின்றது விண்ணை
தொடும் வீரம் அவன்
பேரின் முன்னால் என்
பெயா் சேர இல்லை
ரொம்ப தூரம்
Is a bravery that touches the sky
For my name to be joined before his name
Is not too far away
Are you sweet or spicy
நீ இனிப்பான
உரைப்பான அகர்வாலு
ஹல்வா நீ இவன் பார்க்க
இடம் கேக்க இதழ் சேத்து
கொள்வாள்
Agarwal halwa?
When you ask for a place to look at him
She will yield her lips
He came to my bed
என் மேதை வந்தானே
அவன் நெஞ்சில் ஒட்டிப்பேனே
இனி கொஞ்சி கொல்லுவானே
முத்த தேன் நான் சேர்ப்பேன்
I will stick close to his chest
Now he will cuddle me
I will gather kissable honey
Alaikaa laikka..dwain dwain dwain..
