அன்பு மலர்களின் சோலை இது
ஆசை மனம் இட்டக் கோலம் இது
அன்பு மலர்களின் சோலை இது
ஆசை மனம் இட்டக் கோலம் இது
சொந்தங்களே பந்தங்களே
சொந்தங்களே பந்தங்களே
சொர்க்கம் இது என்று சொல்லி மகிழ்கின்ற

ஆசை மனம் இட்டக் கோலம் இது
This is a garden of love flowers
This is a rangoli pattern drawn by a longing heart
கண்ணில் தெரியுது அன்பின் எல்லை
காணும் கனவுக்கு எல்லை இல்லை
மண்ணில் நிலைக்கின்ற காலம் வரை
மங்கலம் பொங்கிட என்ன குறை
கண்மணியே.........ஏஏ..........
சிறு பொன் விளைக்கே
முழு நிலவாய்... புது மலராய்...
முழு நிலவாய் புது மலராய்
உன்னில் இருந்து இவ்வையத்தில் வாழ்வேன்
The boundary of love is visible in the eyes
There is no limit to the dreams one beholds
As long as time endures on this earth
What lack is there for prosperity to overflow?
Oh darling, precious little golden lamp
Like a full moon… like a fresh flower…
Like a full moon, like a fresh flower
Through you, I shall live in this world
அன்பு மலர்களின் சோலை இது
ஆசை மனம் இட்டக் கோலம் இது
சொந்தங்களே பந்தங்களே
சொர்க்கம் இது என்று சொல்லி மகிழ்கின்ற
This is a garden of love flowers
This is a rangoli pattern drawn by a longing heart
Oh beloved relatives, oh cherished bonds
Rejoicing in declaring that this place is heaven
அன்பு மலர்களின் சோலை இது
ஆசை மனம் இட்டக் கோலம் இது
This is a garden of love flowers
This is a rangoli pattern drawn by a longing heart
அந்தியின் சந்திப்பு நித்தம் நித்தம்
அன்பு வழங்கிடும் முத்தம் முத்தம்
இந்தப் பொழுது எனக்கினிமை
இருந்து மகிழ்வது உன் கடமை
வாழும் வரை........வாழ்ந்திருப்பேன்
வாழ்பவரை வாழ்த்திச் செல்வேன்
வாழ்பவரை வாழ்த்திச் செல்வேன்
நெஞ்ச நிறைவோடு வாழ்த்துகிறேன்
The twilight meeting happening day after day
Kisses showered warmly with love
This present moment brings pure sweetness to me
To remain and cherish this joy is your duty
As long as I live, I shall live fully
I shall shower blessings upon all who live
I shall shower blessings upon all who live
I bless everyone with a heart filled with contentment
அன்பு மலர்களின் சோலை இது
ஆசை மனம் இட்டக் கோலம் இது
சொந்தங்களே பந்தங்களே
சொந்தங்களே பந்தங்களே
சொர்க்கம் இது என்று சொல்லி மகிழ்கின்ற
This is a garden of love flowers
This is a rangoli pattern drawn by a longing heart
Oh beloved relatives, oh cherished bonds
Oh beloved relatives, oh cherished bonds
Rejoicing in declaring that this place is heaven
