ஹே ஹே
ஹே ஹே ஹே ஹே
Oh heaven wearing a chudithar,
When did you fall in love with me?
Will you tell me a little bit?
Will you tell me, will you tell me?
சுடிதார் அணிந்து
வந்த சொர்க்கமே என்மீது
காதல் வந்தது எப்போது
என்று கொஞ்சம் நீ சொல்வாயா
நீ சொல்வாயா நீ சொல்வாயா
A little love came when looking into your eyes,
A little love came when holding your fingers,
When full love bloomed, I do not know!
I do not know that, I do not know that!
விழிகள் பார்த்து
கொஞ்சம் வந்தது விரல்
சேர்த்து கொஞ்சம் வந்தது
முழு காதல் என்று வந்தது
தெரியாதே அது தெரியாதே
அது தெரியாதே
The love I hold for you,
The love you hold for me,
Which one would you rank higher?
உன் மேல் நான்
கொண்ட காதல் என்மேல்
நீ கொண்ட காதல் எதை நீ
உயர்வாக சொல்வாயோ
Go away, mischievous boy!
It is the shared love we hold together;
Will you split it into two separate things?
போடா பொல்லாத
பையா நம் மேல் நாம் கொண்ட
காதல் அதை நீ ரெண்டாக
பார்ப்பாயா
Oh heaven wearing a chudithar,
When did you fall in love with me?
Will you tell me a little bit?
சுடிதார் அணிந்து
வந்த சொர்க்கமே என்மீது
காதல் வந்தது எப்போது
என்று கொஞ்சம் நீ சொல்வாயா
Whenever your name is spoken,
I turn around to look.
.........................................
Only your name,
I eagerly long to hear.
உன் பேரை
சொன்னாலே நான்
திரும்பி பார்க்கிறேன்
We two have merged into one,
Why do we need two separate names, my girl?
உன் பேரை
மட்டும்தான் நான்
விரும்பி கேட்கிறேன்
I have dissolved myself inside you;
Ask yourself!
இருவர் ஒருவராய்
இணைந்து விட்டோம்
இரண்டு பெயர் ஏனடி
If I ever forget you for a moment,
Will your love change?
உனக்குள் நான்
என்னை கரைத்துவிட்டேன்
உன்னையே கேளு நீ
Does a morning lotus flower blooming,
Look up at the nighttime stars?
அடி உன்னை
நான் மறந்த வேளையில்
உன் காதல் மாறுமா
The love I hold for you,
The love you hold for me,
Which one would you rank higher?
விடிகாலை
தாமரை பூவிது
விண்மீனை பார்க்குமா
Go away, mischievous boy!
It is the shared love we hold together;
Will you split it into two separate things?
உன் மேல் நான்
கொண்ட காதல் என் மேல்
நீ கொண்ட காதல் எதை நீ
உயர்வாக சொல்வாயோ
Oh heaven wearing a chudithar,
When did you fall in love with me?
Will you tell me a little bit?
போடா பொல்லாத
பையா நம் மேல் நாம் கொண்ட
காதல் அதை நீ ரெண்டாக
பார்ப்பாயா
Among millions of women,
Why did you search for me?
சுடிதார் அணிந்து
வந்த சொர்க்கமே என்மீது
காதல் வந்தது எப்போது
என்று கொஞ்சம் நீ சொல்வாயா
As the woman I was searching for,
You appeared yourself!
பல கோடி
பெண்களிலே எதற்கென்னை
தேடினாய்
When grey hair arrives with old age,
Will you still feel like pampering me?
நான் தேடும்
பெண்ணாக நீ தானே
தோன்றினாய்
Hey girl, in deep love,
Does growing grey hair even matter?
நரை கூடும்
நாட்களிலே என்னை
கொஞ்ச தோன்றுமா
Did this love born in your eyes come with an end?
அடி போடி
காதலிலே நரை கூட
தோன்றுமா
Will this love born in my heart ever leave my heart?
The love I hold for you,
The love you hold for me,
Which one would you rank higher?
உன் கண்ணில்
உண்டான காதலிது
மூடிவிடும் என்னமோ
Go away, mischievous boy!
It is the shared love we hold together;
Will you split it into two separate things?
என் நெஞ்சில்
உண்டான காதல் இது
நெஞ்சை விட்டு போகுமோ
உன் மேல் நான் கொண்ட
காதல் என் மேல் நீ கொண்ட
காதல் எதை நீ உயர்வாக
சொல்வாயோ
Oh heaven wearing a chudithar,
When did you fall in love with me?
Will you tell me a little bit?
Will you tell me, will you tell me?
போடா பொல்லாத
பையா நம் மேல் நாம் கொண்ட
காதல் அதை நீ ரெண்டாக
பார்ப்பாயா
A little love came when looking into your eyes,
A little love came when holding your fingers,
When full love bloomed, I do not know!
I do not know that, I do not know that!
