Adi sooli pennae thoor azhagae
Alli povathenna tholavinil megam
Neeli thimir konda azhagiyalae
Thalli sella sella kooduthu mogam
Adi sooli pennae thoor azhagae
Alli povathenna tholai thooram
Neeli thimir konda azhagiyalae
Solli sollavathenna vizhiyoram
Enai eerkkum paarvayilae
Pudhiraana siru thuliyae
Uyir saikkum azhaginilae
Aridhaana penn azhagae
Adadaa vizhiyil nuzhainthu
Sillidum veyilae
Viralinidaiyae sudar vidum mazhaiyae
Vizhiyil nuzhainthu sillidum veyilae
Viralinidaiyae sudar vidum mazhaiyae
Maaya thuli pola nee pesa
Kaala peru veliyae ilai paarum
Aazhathulai pola koor vizhiya
Maayamena bodhai thalaikkerum
Netri mugattil mudikatrai irandu
Sarinthu vizhum thooranai azhagai
Ada eppadi solla ennavendru solla
Aiyyaiyo athu pol oor kavithai
Kann uranga kaadhali madi thedum

Neeli thimir konda azhagiyalae
Thalli sella sella kooduthu mogam
Adi sooli pennae thoor azhagae

Solli sollavathenna vizhiyoram
Hey fierce enchanting girl, deep-rooted beauty,
Why do the distant clouds sweep you away?
Proud enchantress, striking beauty,
As you move further away, my longing only grows.
Hey fierce enchanting girl, deep-rooted beauty,
Why do you drift so far away?
Proud enchantress, striking beauty,
What are the corners of your eyes trying to say?
In that glance that pulls me close,
you are a tiny drop of mystery.
With a charm that steals my soul away,
you are a rare and precious beauty.
Oh, entering through the eyes,
you are sunshine that sends a shiver!
A glowing rain slipping through my fingers!
Entering my eyes, you are sunshine that chills,
A glowing rain slipping through my fingers!
When you speak like a magical droplet,
the vast expanse of time pauses to rest.
With sharp eyes piercing deep,
an intoxicating spell rushes to my head.
Two locks of hair on your forehead,
and the graceful way they tumble down—
how do I even put it into words?
Oh my, has there ever been a poem like that?
Longing for his lover's lap to fall asleep,
have I become your willing prisoner?
When you nudge me with your tiny fingers,
am I just a baby in your arms?
In moments of silence, the glances you cast
feel like pure intoxication.
The earrings that brush your shoulders,
and the teasing breeze that taunts me...
Quenching our burning passion in the bedroom,
resting upon the early morning pillow,
bursting out in a single split second,
such wordless, petty angers flare up.
Stumbling every day under this sweet torment,
will you dissolve these restless longings?
My pounding heart searches for a companion,
will you put an end to my loneliness?
Hey fierce enchanting girl, deep-rooted beauty,
Why do the distant clouds sweep you away?
Proud enchantress, striking beauty,
As you move further away, my longing only grows.
Hey fierce enchanting girl, deep-rooted beauty,
Why do you drift so far away?
Proud enchantress, striking beauty,
What are the corners of your eyes trying to say?
