கொரோனா கண்ணால
கொல்ல பாக்குறா
சானிடைசர் இல்லாம
சுத்தம் ஆக்குறா
With your eyes like Corona
You try to kill me
Without sanitizer
You wipe me clean
மாஸ்க் போட்டு போனாலும்
மாஸ்சா இருக்குறா
பாவம் என் ஹார்ட்டதான்
லாக்டவுன் பண்ணுறா
Even if you wear a mask
You look totally awesome
Pity my heart
You put it on lockdown
சிக்காத சிட்டா இருப்பா
சில நேரம் சிரிச்சே முடிப்பா
சீன் போடும் போட்டி நடந்தா
பர்ஸ்ட் பிளேச தூக்கிடுவா
You remain an elusive bird
Sometimes you slay me with a smile
If there was a show-off contest
You would bag the first place
நாளாக நாளாக வலிக்குதே
உன்கூட நான் சேரத்தான்
லவ் சொல்ல பயமாவே இருக்குதே
தெரியாம தவிச்சேனே நான்
Day by day it hurts more
Just to unite with you
I am fearful of confessing my love
I suffered helplessly without knowing what to do
நாளாக நாளாக வலிக்குதே
உன்கூட நான் சேரத்தான்
லவ் சொல்ல பயமாவே இருக்குதே
தெரியாம தவிச்சேனே நான்.......
Day by day it hurts more
Just to unite with you
I am fearful of confessing my love
I suffered helplessly without knowing what to do
ஹேய் ஹேய் ஹேய் ஹேய்
ஹேய் ஹேய் ஹேய் ஹேய்
ஹேய்.....ஏய்......ஏய்......ஏய்.....
குழு :
ஹேய் ஹேய் ஹேய் ஹேய்

You remain an elusive bird
Sometimes you slay me with a smile
If there was a show-off contest
You would bag the first place
உன் கண்ண பார்த்து பேச
தினம் நானும் யோசிச்சேன்
ஆனா உன் பக்கம் வந்தா
திக்கிதான் தவிச்சேன்
To look into your eyes and talk
I thought about it every day
But when I came near you
I stammered and struggled
சொல்லாத காதல் எல்லாம்
வெல்லாத காதல்தான்
சொல்லி நான் தோத்து போன
முடியாது வாழத்தான்
Unexpressed love is
Love that never wins
If I confess and get rejected
I won't be able to live
சிக்காத சிட்டா இருப்பா
சில நேரம் சிரிச்சே முடிப்பா
சீன் போடும் போட்டி நடந்தா
பர்ஸ்ட் பிளேச தூக்கிடுவா......ஆ.....
