An intoxication rises from your rear grace.

Oh my, you are like unblemished,
Pure milk foam,
A lotus that remains unstained,
Even while growing in mud.
முன்னழகில் நீயும்
சீற பின்னழகில் ஏறும்
போதை பொட்ட புள்ள

It feels like a grand festival day.
ஆத்தாடி நீதான்
அழுக்கு அடையாத பால்
நுரை சேத்தோட வாழ்ந்தும்
கரை படியாத தாமரை
பூக்குற என்ன தாக்குற
Two eyes are not enough,
To admire and describe your captivating beauty.
To behold your complete elegance,
I would gladly take ten births.

Across many lands and nations.
Even so,
