My love, my love
என் அன்பே என்
அன்பே என் கண்ணுக்குள்
கவிதாஞ்சலி என் அன்பே
என் அன்பே என் நெஞ்சுக்குள்
காதல் வலி
A poetic offering in my eyes
My love, my love
A pain of love within my heart
Today, my body has become an ocean
என் உடல் இன்று
கடல் ஆனதே என்
உயிருக்குள் அலையாடுதே
இந்த பாறைக்குள் பனி
பாய்ந்ததே என் விரதத்தில்
விளையாடுதே
And waves are surging inside my soul
Dew drops have seeped into this rock
And it plays with my resolve of vow
Oh beloved friend... oh beloved friend...
ஓ சகி ஓ சகி
பிாியசகி பிாியசகி
Dear friend... dear friend...
My love, my love
என் அன்பே என்
அன்பே என் கண்ணுக்குள்
கவிதாஞ்சலி என் அன்பே
என் அன்பே என் நெஞ்சுக்குள்
காதல் வலி
A poetic offering in my eyes
My love, my love
A pain of love within my heart
The place touched by your glance has become like a statue sculpted by a chisel
விழி பட்ட இடம்
இன்று உளி பட்ட சிலையாக
இதுதானோ காதல் என்று
அறிந்தேனடி புது பாா்வை
நீ பாா்த்து புது வாா்த்தை
நீ பேசி இதயத்தை இடம்
மாற செய்தாயடி
I came to know that this indeed is love, my girl
Casting a new look and speaking new words
You made my heart displace its location
Oh beautiful girl who walks with a slender waist
மெல்லிடை கொண்டு
நடைகள் போடும் அழகான
பெண்ணே முப்படை கொண்டு
எனை சுற்றி வளைத்தாயடி
என் உறக்கத்தை திருடி சென்று
உறவாடும் பூவே உன் சிாிப்புக்குள்
சிறை வைக்கிறாய்
You surrounded and trapped me in your three dimensions
Oh flower that steals my sleep and interacts with me
You imprison me within your smile
Ah, bit by bit, you tormented me
அட கொஞ்சம்
கொஞ்சமாய் என்னை
வாட்டினாய் கொஞ்சம்
கொஞ்சமாய் என்னை
மாற்றினாய் இதயத்தின்
மறுபக்கம் நீ காட்டினாய்
Bit by bit, you transformed me
You showed me the other side of my heart
What can I say now? Today I have consumed both nectar and poison
இனி என்ன
சொல்லுவேன் இன்று
நான் அமுத நஞ்சையும்
உண்டு இனி ரெக்கை
இன்றியே நான் போவேன்
வான் மீதிலே
Now, without wings, I shall fly into the sky
Oh beloved friend... oh beloved friend...
Dear friend... dear friend...
My love, my love
ஓ சகி ஓ சகி
பிாியசகி பிாியசகி
A poetic offering in my eyes
My love, my love
A pain of love within my heart
{ Oh beloved friend... oh beloved friend...
என் அன்பே என்
அன்பே என் கண்ணுக்குள்
கவிதாஞ்சலி என் அன்பே
என் அன்பே என் நெஞ்சுக்குள்
காதல் வலி
Dear friend... dear friend... } (2)

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song 'En Anbae En Anbae' expresses the overwhelming, transformative impact of falling in love. The protagonist describes how the mere gaze and presence of his beloved have awakened intense emotions within him, turning his rigid, rock-like discipline into a fluid ocean of feelings. He reflects on how love brings both sweet ecstasy and painful longing, comparing the experience to tasting both nectar and poison simultaneously, leaving him feeling so elevated that he can fly without wings.
