இளங்கிளியே இன்னும் விளங்கலியே
என்னைத் தழுவிட அருகினில் வந்தால் என்ன
சுக தரிசனம் ஒரு முறை கண்டால் என்ன
சுக தரிசனம் ஒரு முறை கண்டால் என்ன
Young parrot-like girl, don't you understand yet?
What if you came close to embrace me?
What if we experience a joyful vision just once?

சுக தரிசனம் பெற வழி இங்கே உண்டா

Hello my beauty
Don't be so naughty
I am so hearty
But I can't help it sweety
கண்ணில் அஞ்சனம் தீட்டி
ஒரு காதல் போதையை ஊட்டி
நெஞ்சில் பஞ்சணை காட்டி
எனை நோக செய்வதேன் வாட்டி
Applying kohl to the eyes
Feeding an intoxication of love
Showing a bed of comfort in the heart
Why do you torment and hurt me?
அந்த காமன் விட்ட தூது
உன்னை காதல் கொண்ட மாது
நானும் உன்னை கேட்கும் போது
இங்கு பாவம் என்ன ஏது
The messenger sent by Lord Cupid
The maiden who fell in love with you
When I ask of you too
What sin or fault is there here?

சின்ன நூலிடை மேலே கொடி
மின்னல் தொட்டது போலே
வந்து நீ தொடும் நேரம் குளிர்
வானம் மண்ணிலே தோன்றும்
Upon the slender thread-like waist
Like a flash of lightning touching
The moment you come and touch, a cool
Sky appears on the earth
உந்தன் காதல் போதும் போதும்
எந்தன் கற்பு என்ன ஆகும்
என்னை பெண்கள் தொட்டதில்லை
நானும் பேசிப் பார்த்ததில்லை
Your love is enough, enough
What will happen to my chastity?
Women have never touched me
I have not even spoken to them before
