அம்மாடியோ போதும் போதும்
சூடானதே தேகம் தேகம்
தனிமையில் இனிமையில் இளமையில்
Oh my goodness, enough, enough!
The body has become so heated, so heated!
In solitude, in sweetness, in youthfulness...
அம்மாடியோ போதும் போதும்
சூடானதே தேகம் தேகம்
Oh my goodness, enough, enough!
The body has become so heated, so heated!
தனிமையில் இனிமையில் இளமையில்
In solitude, in sweetness, in youthfulness...
சில்லென்ற பூங்காற்று வீசினால்
தேகம் இங்கு வாடும்
செந்தூர பூவோடு பேசினால்
இன்பம் வந்து கூடும்
Even if a cool gentle breeze blows,
The body here languishes and wilts.
If one speaks with the vermilion flower,
Joy will arrive and unite.
தனிமையோ தவிக்குதே
இனிமையோ தழுவிடுதே...
லலலலா லலலலா லலலா லல லலலா
Solitude is squirming with agony,
Sweetness is gently embracing,
Lalala lalala lalala lala lalala
தென்றல் காற்றும் தூபம் போடும்
என் மேனிதான் வாடுதே
Even the south wind offers fragrant incense,
Yet my body wilts away.
அம்மாடியோ போதும் போதும்
சூடானதே தேகம் தேகம்
தனிமையில் இனிமையில் இளமையில்
Oh my goodness, enough, enough!
The body has become so heated, so heated!
In solitude, in sweetness, in youthfulness...
அம்மாடியோ போதும் போதும்
சூடானதே தேகம் தேகம்
Oh my goodness, enough, enough!
The body has become so heated, so heated!
தனிமையில் இனிமையில் இளமையில்
In solitude, in sweetness, in youthfulness...

காவிரி நீர்போல ஆசைகள்
நெஞ்சில் வந்து மோதும்
Desires come crashing into the heart
Like the flowing waters of the Kaveri.
காணாமல் வீணாகும் கங்கையும்
காதல் துன்பம் மோதும்
Even the Ganges, lost and wasted unseen,
Recites the sorrow of love.
நீரலையோ கடலிலே
கலக்கவே துடிக்கிறதே
லலலலா லலலலா லலலலா லல லலலா
Like water waves yearning in the ocean,
It throbs impatiently to merge!
Lalala lalala lalala lala lalala
பொங்கும் ஆசை மேலும் ஏற
தண்ணீரும் சூடானதே
As overflowing desire rises further,
Even the water has turned hot!
அம்மாடியோ போதும் போதும்
சூடானதே தேகம் தேகம்
Oh my goodness, enough, enough!
The body has become so heated, so heated!
