Oh my heart, heart, heart, heart
மனசு திக்கி டிகிலோனா
முக்கி விக்கலான
காரணம் யார் யாரது
வெட்கமாய் நடந்ததால
வெண்மயில் விழுந்ததால
மொழிகளும் மறந்து போனது
My heart stuttered and beat fast
Struggling with hiccups
Who is the reason behind this?
Because she walked away bashfully
Because I fell for her fairness
Even languages were forgotten
ஐம்பெரும் காப்பிய
அழகான வளையாபதி
ராஜா ராஜனும்
அரியாத சிலையாமடி
பழனி ஆண்டவன்
உருவான சுவை மாங்கனி
அத்தனைக்குமே நிகரனானவள் நீயடி
Among the five great Tamil epics
She is the beautiful Valayapathi
Even King Raja Raja Chola
Would be mesmerized by this unknown sculpture
Created by Lord Murugan of Palani
She is like the sweet delicious mango fruit
Girl, you are equal to all of these treasures combined
நடக்குற நடை அழகு
அவள் அறை இடை அழகு
சேலைகள் மினுங்கிட
புது ரவிக்கையும் ஒரு தனி அழகு
சித்திக்குது கண்ணு கரு விழி
சிவக்குது கண்ண மருகுழி
அழகிய அவளது முகமது
மயக்கிடும் ஒரு தனி முழுமதி
The grace in the way she walks is beautiful
Her slender waist is beautiful
As her sarees shimmer and shine
Her new blouse adds a unique charm
Her dark eyes blink softly
The dimple on her cheek blushes red
That charming face of hers
Is like a full moon that mesmerizes everyone

அருந்தி ப்ரூஸ்லி போலப் பறந்து
அந்த நரக்கத்துகே
கெரகம் வைப்பான்
உன் நெனைப்பில் கெடந்து
Drinking alcohol and getting intoxicated
Lying underneath the shade of a tree

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song is an upbeat, high-energy fusion of playful folk slang, modern pop culture references, and classical Tamil poetic praise. The narrator expresses his deep infatuation with his beloved, comparing her beauty to classic Tamil literature like the epic Valayapathi, divine sculptures, and sweet mangoes from Palani, while playfully juxtaposing these elevated references with pop-culture figures like Rihanna and Bruce Lee. Throughout the track, comical interludes and rhythmic wordplay ('Ettana engana', 'Pathanaakku banana') add a quirky, energetic mood. The protagonist describes the intoxicating effect his lover has on his heart, leaving him tongue-tied, restless, and completely consumed by her grace and allure.
