என் அழகு செல்லம் அம்மு குட்டி
என்ன ஏன் நீ கொல்ற கொல்ற
என் உலகம் நீ தான்
உயிரும் நீ தான்
உறவா வந்து காதல் சொல்ற
My beautiful darling, my sweet cutie,

You alone are my world,
You alone are my life,
You came as my kin and express your love.
யாரு யாரு யாருடா நீ
என்னை திருடத்தான் வந்தாய்யோ நீ
பூமி பந்துக்குள் என் ஜென்மத்த
பூட்டி வைக்கத்தான் வந்தாய்யோ நீ
Who are you, who are you, who on earth are you?
Did you come only to steal me away?
Within this spherical earth, my entire existence,
Did you come to preserve and lock it up?
அடி அடி அடியே என்ன தொலச்ச
உனக்குள்ள விழுந்தேன் என்ன பொதச்ச

காதல் தீர்த்து போகாம
காலம் காலம் நீயும் வேணும்
Uniting across a hundred lifetimes,
You and I must live together.
Without love ever fading away,
I need you for all eternity.
உள்ளங்கையில் ரேகை போல நானும்
உன்ன சேர ஆசை வச்சேன்
உள்ளங்கால சுத்தி வந்து போகும்
நிழலா நானும் மாற வேணும்
Like the lines on your palm, I too,
Desired to join and be with you.
Revolving around the soles of your feet,
I want to transform into your shadow.
என்னடா பண்ணுற என் நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள
ஆண் : என்னவோ பண்ணுற
அத சொல்லியிடத்தான் வார்த்தையில்ல
What are you doing inside my heart?
Male: You are doing something unexplainable,
There are no words to describe it.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This soulful romantic song from the movie Raid (2023) conveys deep devotion and affectionate longing. The protagonist affectionately addresses his lover, expressing how her presence completely dominates his heart and life. He speaks of completely losing his identity in her love and expresses a wish to remain bound to her for a hundred lifetimes, standing as close as the lines on her palm or the shadow under her feet. Composed by Sam C. S. and written by Mohan Rajan, the track portrays love as an overwhelming, sweet surrender that defies simple verbal explanation.
