ஆனந்தம் ஆனந்தம் பாடும்
மனம் ஆசையின் ஊஞ்சலில் ஆடும்
ஆனந்தம் ஆனந்தம் பாடும்
மனம் ஆசையின் ஊஞ்சலில் ஆடும்
ஆயிரம் ஆயிரம் காலம்
இந்த ஞாபகம் பூ மழைத் தூவும்
Joy, endless joy sings
The mind swings in the cradle of desire
Joy, endless joy sings
The mind swings in the cradle of desire
For thousands and thousands of ages
This memory will shower like a rain of flowers
காற்றினில் சாரல் போலப் பாடுதே
பூக்களில் தென்றல் போலத் தேடுதே
நீ வரும் பாதையில்
கண்களால் தவம் இருப்பேன்
It sings like a drizzle in the wind
It searches like a breeze among flowers
On the path where you arrive
I will perform penance with my eyes
ஆனந்தம் ஆனந்தம் பாடும்
மனம் ஆசையின் ஊஞ்சலில் ஆடும்
ஆயிரம் ஆயிரம் காலம்
இந்த ஞாபகம் பூ மழைத் தூவும்
Joy, endless joy sings
The mind swings in the cradle of desire
For thousands and thousands of ages
This memory will shower like a rain of flowers
உன்னைப் பார்த்த நாளில் தான்
கண்ணில் பார்வைத் தோன்றியது
உந்தன் பேரைச் சொல்லித் தான்
எந்தன் பாஷை தோன்றியது
Only on the day I saw you
Vision appeared in my eyes
Only by uttering your name
My language came to be
உன்னை மூடி வைக்கத் தான்
கண்ணில் இமைகள் தோன்றியது
உன்னைச் சூடிப் பார்க்கத் தான்
பூக்கள் மாலை ஆகியது
Just to keep you protected
Eyelids appeared in my eyes
Just to see you adorned
Flowers transformed into a garland
நீ என்னைச் சேர்ந்திடும் வரையில்
இதயத்தில் சுவாசங்கள் இல்லை
நீ வந்து தங்கிய நெஞ்சில்
யாருக்கும் இடமே இல்லை
Until the moment you join me
There is no breath in my heart
In the heart where you came to reside
There is no room for anyone else
The bond I longed for after watching endlessly
Has arrived at my doorstep
பார்த்து பார்த்து
ஏங்கிய சொந்தம்
வாசலில் வந்துச் சேர்ந்ததே
Joy, endless joy sings
The mind swings in the cradle of desire
For thousands and thousands of ages
This memory will shower like a rain of flowers
ஆனந்தம் ஆனந்தம் பாடும்
மனம் ஆசையின் ஊஞ்சலில் ஆடும்
ஆயிரம் ஆயிரம் காலம்
இந்த ஞாபகம் பூ மழைத் தூவும்
Lalalalaa…aaa…lalalalalaaaa…
Lalalalaa…aaa…lalalalalaaaa…
Lalalalaa..
Lalalalala….

Separated from you on any day
My soul will not live
To live in your love
A single lifetime is not enough
உன்னை நீங்கி எந்நாளும்
எந்தன் ஜீவன் வாழாது
உந்தன் அன்பில் வாழ்வதற்கு
ஜென்மம் ஒன்றுப் போதாது
In the heart that thinks of you
No other thought will ever arise
Even if the wind comes to a standstill
Love will never stop
உன்னை எண்ணும் உள்ளத்தில்
வேறு எண்ணம் தோன்றாது
காற்று நின்றுப் போனாலும்
காதல் நின்றுப் போகாது
The life I searched for far and wide
Your companionship gave me right here
The words that searched for rhythm
Have become sweet music here
If desired love joins our hands
Life itself will become heaven

உன் சொந்தம் தந்தது இங்கே
சந்தங்கள் தேடிய வார்த்தை
சங்கீதம் ஆனது இங்கே
Joy, endless joy sings
The mind swings in the cradle of desire
For thousands and thousands of ages
This memory will shower like a rain of flowers
ஆசைக் காதல்
கைகளில் சேர்ந்தால்
வாழ்வே சொர்க்கம் ஆகுமே
It sings like a drizzle in the wind
It searches like a breeze among flowers
On the path where you arrive
I will perform penance with my eyes
