அசத்துதே இந்த பொண்ணு பொண்ணு
இழுக்குதே ரெண்டு கண்ணு கண்ணு
நெனச்சே பாக்கலையே
உன்ன போல ஒரு தேவதைய
This girl is blowing me away, girl
Her two eyes are pulling me in
I never expected it
An angel like you
உசுரே போகுதடி
நீ கூட வந்தா தேவலையே
தாங்கல தாளல
காதல் சூரக்காத்து போல
My life is leaving me
Wouldn't it be great if you came along?
I can't endure or bear it
Like a stormy wind of love
அசத்துதே இந்த பொண்ணு பொண்ணு
இழுக்குதே ரெண்டு கண்ணு கண்ணு
This girl is blowing me away, girl
Her two eyes are pulling me in
ஹ்ம்ம்.....ம்ம்ம்ம்...
வழியில ஓன்ன இவன் அறியவோ
பயணமும் தொடங்குறேன்
அடங்கிடா குதிரையா திரிஞ்சவன்
நொடியில அடங்குனேன்
Hmmm…mmmm…
தொட்டி பூவே தோட்டமாகும்
விந்தை பூத்ததிங்கே
அடடா
உன் வாசம் வீசிட
உலகே
கை சேர்ந்த மாதிரி தோணுதே...
To know you along the path
I begin this journey
I who roamed like an untamed horse
Got tamed in a single second
அசத்துதே இந்த பொண்ணு பொண்ணு
இழுக்குதே ரெண்டு கண்ணு கண்ணு
A potted flower becoming a whole garden
A wonder bloomed here
Oh my...
As your fragrance wafts over
The whole world
Feels like it has reached my hands
ஹ்ம்ம்.....ம்ம்ம்ம்......
கடவுளே அனுப்புன பரிசு நீ
பதுக்க நான் நெனைக்குறேன்
கலகமே பதிஞ்சிடா நிலவு நீ
முழுதுமே ரசிக்கிறேன்
This girl is blowing me away, girl
Her two eyes are pulling me in
என்றோ செய்த நன்மை ஒன்று
பெண்ணாய் வந்ததிங்கே
மனமே
ஆகாதோ மாளிகை
அதிலே
நீ வாழ இல்லையே வாடகை
Hmmmm…mmm
அசத்துதே இந்த பொண்ணு பொண்ணு
இழுக்குதே ரெண்டு கண்ணு கண்ணு
நெனச்சே பாக்கலையே
உன்ன போல ஒரு தேவதைய
You are a gift sent by God
I think of keeping you safe
You are a moon untouched by any blemish
I admire you entirely
உசுரே போகுதடி
நீ கூட வந்தா தேவலையே
தாங்கல தாளல
காதல் சூரக்காத்து போல
A good deed done long ago
Has come here as a woman
Oh my heart
Can't it become a palace?
In that
There is no rent for you to live
அசத்துதே இந்த பொண்ணு பொண்ணு
இழுக்குதே ரெண்டு கண்ணு கண்ணு
