| En kaadhalum ennaagudho thedi | Searching for what becomes of my love |
| Ennoda nee illaamalae podi | Go away without being with me |

| Male | |
| Engo oru pullanguzhal aadi | Somewhere a flute sways and plays |
| Un nyabagam undaakudhae paavi | Evoking memories of you, you sinner |
| Unnoda naan kai korthenae | I held hands with you |
| Nee veesidum kai bommaiyaa naanae | Am I just a hand puppet you toss around? |

(Melodic vocalizing)
என் காதலும் என்னாகுதோ தேடி
என்னோட நீ இல்லாமலே போடி
சொல்லாமலே என் ஆசைகள் கோடி
கண்ணீர் துளி கண் மீறுதே
Searching for what becomes of my love
Go away without being with me
Unspoken are my millions of desires
Tear drops overflow beyond my eyes
எங்கோ ஒரு புல்லாங்குழல் ஆடி
உன் ஞாபகம் உண்டாகுதே பாவி
உன்னோட நான் கை கோர்த்தேனே
நீ வீசும் கை பொம்மையா நானே
Somewhere a flute sways and plays
Evoking memories of you, you sinner
I held hands with you
Am I just a hand puppet you toss around?
என் உயிரே
என் கனவே
என் உயிரே
My life
My dream
My life
நா என்ன செய்வேனோ
காயங்கள் போகாதே
யார் வந்து சொன்னாலும்
என் நெஞ்சு கேட்காதே
What shall I do?
These wounds do not fade
No matter who comes and tells me
My heart refuses to listen
ஓகோ ஓகோ ஓகோ ஓகோ...
(Melodic vocalizing)
எப்போதுமே உன் மூச்சுனு நின்னேன்
நீ தானடி நீ தானடி சொன்ன
ஆனா இப்ப நான் மட்டும் தான் நின்னேன்
போதும் என்றே போனாயடி
I always stood saying I am your breath
I said it is only you, my dear
But now, I stand all alone
You left saying 'enough'
உன்னோட நான் கண்ணாடியா வந்தேன்
சந்தோஷமா முன்னாடி நீ நின்ன
என் மேல் விழும் உன் பிம்பமே
சொந்தம் என்ற முட்டாள் அடி நானே
I came as a mirror to you
You stood happily in front of me
Your reflection falls upon me
I am the fool who thought you were mine
என் கனவே
என் கதையே
என் கனவே
My dream
My story
My dream
நா என்ன செய்வேனோ
காயங்கள் போகாதே
யார் வந்து சொன்னாலும்
என் நெஞ்சு கேட்காதே
What shall I do?
These wounds do not fade
No matter who comes and tells me
My heart refuses to listen
கல்லான இதயமா
கண்டாலே உடையுமா
நம்ம சேர்ந்து காதலிச்ச
வழி பூவெல்லாம்
உன்ன உருவாக்குமா
Is my heart made of stone?
Will it shatter at a mere sight?
When we loved each other together
Did all the flowers on the path turn you into family?
ஓ ஓ ஓ ஓ
ஆகாய....நா என்ன செய்வேனோ
விண்மீனும் காயங்கள் போகாதே
கண்ணீரில் யார் வந்து சொன்னாலும்
கை சேரும் என் நெஞ்சு கேட்காதே
(Melodic vocalizing)
O Sky... what shall I do?
Even stars... these wounds do not fade
In tears, no matter who comes and tells me
Reaching out, my heart refuses to listen
ஓகோ ஓகோ ஓகோ ஓகோ.....
(Melodic vocalizing)
Ho oo oo oo oo ho oo….
(Melodic vocalizing)
En kaadhalum ennaagudho thedi
Searching for what becomes of my love
Ennoda nee illaamalae podi
Go away without being with me
Sollaamalae en aasaigal kodi
Unspoken are my millions of desires
Kaneer thuli kan meerudhae
Tear drops overflow beyond my eyes
Engo oru pullanguzhal aadi
Somewhere a flute sways and plays
Un nyabagam undaakudhae paavi
Evoking memories of you, you sinner
Unnoda naan kai korthenae
I held hands with you
Nee veesidum kai bommaiyaa naanae
Am I just a hand puppet you toss around?
En uyirae
My life
En kanave
My dream
En uyirae
My life
Naan enna seiveno
What shall I do?
Kayangal pogadhae
These wounds do not fade
Yaar vandhu sonnaalum
No matter who comes and tells me
En nenju ketkadhae
My heart refuses to listen
Ho oo oo oo oo ho oo….
(Melodic vocalizing)
Eppodhumae un moochunu ninnen
I always stood saying I am your breath
Needhanadi needhanadi sonnen
I said it is only you, my dear
Aana ippo naan mattum thaan ninnen
But now, I stand all alone
Podhum endrae ponayadi
You left saying 'enough'
Unnoda naan kannadiya vandhen
I came as a mirror to you
Sandhoshama munnadi nee ninna
You stood happily in front of me
En mel vizhum un binbamae
Your reflection falls upon me
Sondham endra muttaaladi naanae
I am the fool who thought you were mine
En kanavae
My dream
En kadhayae

En kanavae
My dream
Naan enna seiveno
What shall I do?
Kayangal pogadhae
These wounds do not fade
Yaar vandhu sonnaalum
No matter who comes and tells me
En nenju ketkadhae
My heart refuses to listen
Kallana idhayama
Is my heart made of stone?
Kandalae udaiyuma
Will it shatter at a mere sight?
Namma serndhu kaadhalicha
When we loved each other together
Vazhi poovellaam unnai uravakkuma
Did all the flowers on the path turn you into family?
Ho oo oo oo ooo …..
(Melodic vocalizing)
Aagaya… naan ennai seiveno
O Sky... what shall I do?
Vinmeenum kayangal pogadhae
Even stars... these wounds do not fade
Kanneeril yaar vandhu sonnaalum
In tears, no matter who comes and tells me
Kai serum en nenju ketkadhae
Reaching out, my heart refuses to listen
Ho oo oo oo oo ho oo….
