சாண் பிள்ளை ஆனாலும்
ஆண்பிள்ளை நான்தாண்டி
சண்டையில் நானும் சிங்கக்குட்டிதான்
ஆள் வச்சு தாக்காதே ஆழம் நீ பார்க்காதே
ஆத்தாடி நீயும் கத்துக்குட்டிதான்
துள்ளி பாயும் இந்தக் காள கன்னு
தாங்கதம்மா நீயும் சின்னப்பொண்ணு
உன்னாலே ஆகாட்டி விட்டுக் கொடுப்பேன்

இல்லாட்டி போனா ஏது நிம்மதி
ஏண்டி புள்ள ஒரு ஏக்கம் உள்ளே
ஏதோ ஒண்ணு இப்ப வேணும் கண்ணு

Doesn't Courtallam always shower with water?
Only through you must my thirst be quenched.
I checked the almanac and asked for astrological predictions;

Rosebud, touch me gently,
You caress me like a tender young guava fruit.
Will our bond ever fade, now or forever?
தண்ணீர எந்நாளும் கொட்டாதோ குத்தாலம்
உன்னாலதாண்டி தாகம் தீரணும்
பாத்தேனே பஞ்சாங்கம் கேட்டேனே ஆரூடம்
தை மாசம் நாம சோடி சேரணும்
ரோசா மொட்டு என்ன லேசா தொட்டு
நீதான் கொஞ்சு சின்ன கொய்யா பிஞ்சு
இப்போதும் எப்போதும் சொந்தம் விடுமோ..
