En punnagai saaral neeyadi
En kaadhal thottamum neeyadi
Unnai thediyae vandhen naanadi
Nee angu illaiyadi
Unakkaaga naanum varuvenae
Uyir koodathaan dhinam tharuvenae
Nee angu indru illaiyael
Naan ingu illaiyadi
Nee engae sendraalum
Engae sendraalum
Nizhalaai iruppenae
En swaasa kaatru un vizhigalilae
Nee enage vilundhaalum
Engae irundhaalum
Oliyaai iruppenae
Vizhiyae vizhiyae nilavin nagalae
Enkaadhalae nee dhaanadi
En nenjukkul pugunthaayadi
Paarvaiyaal kondraaiyadi
Yen paadhiyil sendraayadi
En punnagai saaral neeyadi
En kaadhal thottamum neeyadi
Unnai thediyae vandhen naanadi
Nee angu illaiyadi
Unakkena naanum irukkavae
Enakkena yaarum illaiyae
Endrumae ennodu nee
Vaazhvadhae podhumadi
Nee engae irundhaalum
Kannil nindraayae
Iragaai un idhazlil
Azhagaai vaazha urugurendi
Nee ennai maranthaalum

Nidhamum namm kanavil
Ondraai vaazha yengurendi
Enkaadhalae nee dhaanadi
En nenjukkul pugunthaayadi
Paarvaiyaal kondraaiyadi
Yen paadhiyil sendraayadi
You are the gentle drizzle of my smile, girl
You are the garden of my love, girl
I came searching just for you, girl
Yet you were not there, girl
I will always come for you
I would even give my life for you every day
If you are not there today
I will not exist here, girl
Wherever you go
Wherever you may go
I will be your shadow
The breath of my life is in your eyes
Wherever you may fall
Wherever you may be
I will be your light
O beautiful eyes, a reflection of the moon
You are truly my love, girl
You entered deep into my heart, girl
You killed me with your glance, girl
Why did you leave midway, girl?
You are the gentle drizzle of my smile, girl
You are the garden of my love, girl
I came searching just for you, girl
Yet you were not there, girl
When I am here just for you
There is no one else for me
For you to live with me forever
Is more than enough, girl
Wherever you are
You remain in my eyes
Like a feather upon your lips
I melt just to live beautifully, girl
Even if you forget me
You have dissolved within me
Every day in our dreams
I yearn for us to live as one, girl
You are truly my love, girl
You entered deep into my heart, girl
You killed me with your glance, girl
Why did you leave midway, girl?
