When lying down comfortably
To let jasmine flowers shower over us
Do not just let the moment pass
When the sweet parrot speaks unfiltered truths
Sweat should pour on its own
Show what your real work is later

மல்லிகை பூ மேல விழ சும்மா
நீயும் விட்டு விடாத சேல
கட்டாத சேதிகள செல்லக்கிளி

To defeat you standing tall
Who is really capable?
You are the pearl of pearls
When you come and smile
Even the Lord of Death would bow down

Do not walk the wrong path
You and I came together as capable people
Without pain anywhere in life

நீயும் நானும் ஆளாயி
வாழ்க்கை எங்கேனும்
நோவாம நீ ஆராயி
Across eight local territories
A delicate beauty adorned with a bindi
Why didn't you come to mesmerize?
Female: Yes
