ஏய் சொழலி
அழகி விலகி கலகட்டிப்
போறவளே இருடி திருடி
அழகூட்டித்தான் நகரும் அரளி
நொறதள்ளி போனேன் வெட்கம் கொறடி
Hey whirlwind.. beautiful girl.. moving away
Girl who creates a celebration wherever she goes
Wait a moment
You thief
Showering beauty
A walking oleander flower
I was exhausted to the point of foaming at the mouth
Shed your shyness
உன் வயசத்தான்
தித்திப்பா தின்னேன்
உசுரத்தான் கத்தி சொன்னேன்
I tasted the sweetness of your youth
I declared my life out loud
பொட்டக்கோழி அழகுல
என்ன கொத்தி அலையுற விட்டா
கொஞ்சம் பொழைக்கிறேன் விடுடி……
With the beauty of a hen
You peck at me and wander around
If you spare me a bit, I will survive; let me go
முட்ட போட்டு
மனசுல கண்ணத்தூக்கி எாியுற
திட்டா எட்டி செதறுறேன் எறலி
Hey whirlwind.. beautiful girl.. moving away
Girl who creates a celebration wherever she goes
Wait a moment
You thief
ஏய் சொழலி
அழகி விலகி கலகட்டிப்
போறவளே இருடி திருடி
Perish as food for the bull
Let me consume the sown forest
கெடமாட்டுக்கு
உணவ அழலி விதைபோட்ட
காட்ட திங்க குடுடி நீ மனசோட
கல்வெட்டா நின்னா கண் வெட்டா
வெட்டிக்கொன்ன ..........
With the beauty of a hen
You peck at me and wander around
If you spare me a bit, I will survive; let me go
பொட்டக்கோழி அழகுல
என்ன கொத்தி அலையுற விட்டா
கொஞ்சம் பொழைக்கிறேன் விடுடி……
Hey whirlwind..
Male: Shore of the banyan forest
Name swimming in the river
A breaking water lily
Babbling daily
Coming as love
Shouting into the ear
A bustling beetle
Swallowing kisses
Sound of hopping across flowers
முட்ட போட்டு
மனசுல கண்ணத்தூக்கி எாியுற
திட்டா எட்டி செதறுறேன் எறலி
Honey pours and I am getting buried
Did the torrential rain pour down?
A fish confused and trapped in a dream
Did it escape upon waking up?
ஏய் சொழலி
ஆலங்காட்டு கர
ஆத்தில் நீந்தும் பேரை
உடையுற அல்லி உலருது நித்தம்
காதலா வண்டு காதுல கத்தும்
பொழங்குற வண்டு முழுங்குது முத்தம்
பூவுல தத்தி தாவுற சத்தம்
With the beauty of a hen
You peck at me and wander around
If you spare me a bit, I will survive; let me go
பொழியிது தேனு
பொதையுறேன் நானு
அடைமழை கொட்டிச்சா
கனவுல மாட்டி கொழம்புன
மீனு முழிச்சதும் தப்பிச்சா
{Hey whirlwind..} (x4)
பொட்டக்கோழி அழகுல
என்ன கொத்தி அலையுற விட்டா
கொஞ்சம் பொழைக்கிறேன் விடுடி……
முட்ட போட்டு
மனசுல கண்ணத்தூக்கி எாியுற
திட்டா எட்டி செதறுறேன் எறலி ............
