எனக்கென்ன ஆச்சு என் காதலி
நின்னு போச்சு எனக்கே என் மூச்சடி
What happened to me, my beloved?
My breath has stopped even to my own surprise, girl!
ஹே எ எ எ எ ஹே
Hey eh eh eh eh hey
ஹேய் எனக்கேதோ ஆச்சுடி
நின்னு போச்சு எனக்கே என் மூச்சடி
ஹேய் எனக்கேதோ ஆச்சுடி
நின்னு போச்சு எனக்கே என் மூச்சடி
Hey, something has happened to me, girl!
My breath has stopped even to my own surprise, girl!
Hey, something has happened to me, girl!
My breath has stopped even to my own surprise, girl!
உனை சுற்றியே உயிர் மேயுதே
உன் பார்வையில் உடல் மேயுதே
உனை சேரவே வரம் கேட்குரேன்
தினம்தோறும் நான் எதிர் பார்குரேன்
My soul grazes around you constantly.
My body wears away under your gaze.
I ask for a boon to unite with you.
Every day I wait in anticipation...
ஹேய் எனக்கேதோ ஆச்சுடி
நின்னு போச்சு எனக்கே என் மூச்சடி
ஹே எ எ ஹேய் எனக்கேதோ ஆச்சுடி
நின்னு போச்சு எனக்கே என் மூச்சடி
Hey, something has happened to me, girl!
My breath has stopped even to my own surprise, girl!
Hey eh eh hey, something has happened to me, girl!
My breath has stopped even to my own surprise, girl!
மூச்சு மோதும் தூரத்தில்
யாருமற்ற நேரத்தில்
பேச வார்த்தை தேடுகிறேன் நானே
ஒரே நொடியில் உன் வாசம் இருந்தாலும் பரவசம்
வேறொன்றும் தேடாவில்லை நானே
அழகாகவே நிறம் மாறுதே என் வாழ்கையே ……
At a distance where breath brushes against breath,
At a moment when no one else is around,
I am searching for words to speak.
Captivated by you in a single second,
Yet it feels like sheer ecstasy.
I am not searching for anything else.
Color changes so beautifully,
My life itself... oh oh oh!
வேரோடு நான் விழுந்தேனடி
உனை பார்த்து தான் எழுந்தேனடி
I fell down completely to my roots, girl!
Just by looking at you, I stood up again, girl!
ஹேய் எனக்கேதோ ஆச்சுடி
நின்னு போச்சு எனக்கே என் மூச்சடி
ஹேய் எனக்கேதோ ஆச்சுடி
நின்னு போச்சு எனக்கே என் மூச்சடி
Hey, something has happened to me, girl!
My breath has stopped even to my own surprise, girl!
Hey, something has happened to me, girl!
My breath has stopped even to my own surprise, girl!
