கரையில் வரும் அலையாய்
தேடி நான் வந்தேனே
இரவு வரும் நிழலாய்
நிற்க்கிறேன்
Searching for the wave that reaches the shore,
I came looking...
Like a shadow that arrives with the night,
I stand waiting...
உன்னை பிரியும் வேளையில்
சில நொடிகளும்
பல யுகங்களாவதேன்
இணையே நீ என்னை கொல்லாதே
In the moment of parting from you,
Why do even a few seconds
Turn into many eras?
My soulmate, please do not kill me!
ஒஹ் அழகியே அருகிலே
தவிக்கிறேன் நான் தொலைகிறேன்
சிறுக்கியே சிறுக்கியே
சிரித்ததும் நான் சிதைகிறேன்
உன்னை காணமல் நான் போனாலே
வாழ்வேனோ சொல்லடி
Oh beautiful one, come near,
I am suffering, I am losing myself.
You captivating girl, you enchanting girl,
The moment you smile, I am shattered.
If I go without seeing you,
Tell me, will I live?
அழகியே அருகிலே
தவிக்கிறேன் நான் தொலைகிறேன்
Oh beautiful one, come near,
I am suffering, I am losing myself.
இரவில் வரும் மொழியாய்
உன்னை நான் கண்டேனே
இருளில் நீ மறைந்தாய்
ஏனடி....ஓஹோ
உன்னை பிரியும் வேளையில்
சில நொடிகளும்
பல யுகங்களாவதேன்
இணையே நீ என்னை கொல்லாதே
As a language that emerges in the night,
I found you.
Why did you disappear into the darkness?
Why, oh why...
In the moment of parting from you,
Why do even a few seconds
Turn into many eras?
My soulmate, please do not kill me!
ஒஹ் அழகியே அருகிலே
தவிக்கிறேன் நான் தொலைகிறேன்
சிறுக்கியே சிறுக்கியே
சிரித்ததும் நான் சிதைகிறேன்
Oh beautiful one, come near,
I am suffering, I am losing myself.
You captivating girl, you enchanting girl,
The moment you smile, I am shattered.
