Vocal chatter and blessing for a good boyfriend
நான் ஆசையை
வென்ற ஒரு புத்தனும்
அல்ல என் காதலை
சொல்ல நான் கம்பனும்
அல்ல உன் காது கடித்தேன்
நான் கனவினில் மெல்ல
இன்று கட்டி அணைத்தேன்
இது கற்பனை அல்ல
I am not a Buddha who has conquered desire
Nor am I Kambar to poetically express my love
I softly nibbled your ear in my dreams
Today I embraced you, this is no imagination
அடி மனம்
தவிக்கும் அடிக்கடி
துடிக்கும் ஆசையை
திருகிவிடு இருவிழி
மயங்கி இதழ்களில்
இறங்கி உயிர் வரை
பருகி விடு
My inner heart yearns and constantly beats
Unleash and turn up the desire
Let eyes swoon, descend onto lips, and drink up to the soul
ஹோ முத்தம்
வழங்காது ரத்தம்
அடங்காது
Oh… without giving kisses, the passion will not calm down
அழகு அழகு
Beauty… beauty…
ஆ நீ நடந்தால்
நடை அழகு அழகு
நீ சிரித்தால் சிரிப்பழகு
அழகு நீ பேசும் தமிழ்
அழகு அழகு நீ ஒருவன்
தான் அழகு அழகு அழகு
Ah, when you walk, your stride is beauty… beauty
When you smile, your smile is beauty… beauty
The Tamil you speak is beauty… beauty
You alone are beauty… beauty… beauty
ஓஹோ
Everything I see is indeed your face
Everything I hear is indeed your voice
All that rain from the sky is for this earth
All my youth is reserved for this divine beloved
நான் பார்ப்பது
எல்லாம் அட உன் முகம்
தானே நான் கேட்பது
எல்லாம் அட உன் குரல்
தானே அந்த வான் மழை
எல்லாம் இந்த பூமிக்கு தானே
என் வாலிபம் எல்லாம் இந்த
சாமிக்கு தானே
Petal-clad flowers blossomed for me
May I taste the sweet nectar?
Until dawn breaks, until the end
Shall I write poems of love?
மடல் கொண்ட
மலர்கள் மலர்ந்தது
எனக்கு மது ரசம்
அருந்தட்டுமா விடிகின்ற
வரையில் முடிகின்ற
வரையில் கவிதைகள்
எழுதட்டுமா
Shall we dive for pearls in the ocean of kisses?
Beauty… beauty
முத்தம்
என்ற கடலில்
முத்து குளிப்போமா
அழகு அழகு
Oh… when you walk, your stride is beauty… beauty
Your waist approaching closer is beauty… beauty
Your spear-like sharp eyes are beauty… beauty
Your innocent, milk-like face is beauty… beauty… beauty
ஓ நீ நடந்தால்
நடை அழகு அழகு
நெருங்கி வரும் இடை
அழகு அழகு வேல்
எரியும் விழி அழகு
அழகு பால் வடியும்
முகம் அழகு அழகு
அழகு
Oh… gilded with a golden polish
Every part of the frame is a beauty
Even from a distance embracing me
The lotus-like beloved is beauty
ஹோ ஓ
தங்க முலாம் பூசி
வைத்த அங்கம் ஒரு
அழகு தள்ளி நின்று
எனை அணைக்கும்
தாமரையும் அழகு
Beauty… beauty… beauty… beauty
அழகு அழகு
