| Anangae nee sinungida anaikkava | Oh beautiful woman, shall I embrace you as you coyly sulk? |
| Nerungaamal tholaivinil nadikkava | Or shall I pretend to stay detached from a distance without coming close? |
| Vizhi rendum kadugaaga | With both your eyes popping like fiery mustard seeds, |
| Vizhungidavaa viraindhae thaan | Shall I swallow you up right away? |
| Male | |
| Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa | Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa |
| Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa | Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa |
| Sunandha naam parapoma ulaginaiyae marapoma | Oh Sunandha, shall we fly together and forget this entire world? |
அணங்கே நீ சிணுங்கிட அணைக்கவா
நெருங்காமல் தொலைவினில் நடக்கவா
விழி ரெண்டும் கடுகாக
விழுங்கிடவா விரைந்தே தான்
Oh beautiful woman, shall I embrace you as you coyly sulk?
Or shall I pretend to stay detached from a distance without coming close?
With both your eyes popping like fiery mustard seeds,
Shall I swallow you up right away?
ஹை யை ஏஹ் ஏஹ் ஒஹு ஒஹு ஒஹு ஆஹா
ஹை யை ஏஹ் ஏஹ் ஒஹு ஒஹு ஒஹு ஆஹா
சுனந்தா நாம் பரப்போமா உலகினையே மறப்போமா
Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa
Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa
Oh Sunandha, shall we fly together and forget this entire world?
Anangae nee sinungida anaikkava
Oh beautiful woman, shall I embrace you as you coyly sulk?
Nerungaamal tholaivinil nadikkava
Or shall I pretend to stay detached from a distance without coming close?
Vizhi rendum kadugaaga
With both your eyes popping like fiery mustard seeds,
Vizhungidavaa viraindhae thaan
Shall I swallow you up right away?
Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa
Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa
Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa
Haiye yeae yeae wohu wohu wohu aahaaa
Sunandha naam parapoma ulaginaiyae marapoma
Oh Sunandha, shall we fly together and forget this entire world?

He wonders whether he should embrace her while she feigns annoyance or keep a distance to play along with her drama.
