| Male | |
| Naanaga naan irundhen | I was minding my own business, |
| Naduvula vandhuputta | You came into my life in between. |
| Thaenaaga nee irundha | You were sweet like honey, |
| Thoorathula ninnuputta | Yet you stood at a distance. |
| Yen di yen di | Why girl, why girl? |
| Yen di yen di | Why girl, why girl? |
| Male | |
| Poovaaga nee irundha | You were gentle like a flower, |
| Poo naagam aagi putta | Now you have turned into a flower cobra. |
| Maanaga nee irundha | You were like a timid deer, |
| Raavanana maathi putta | You transformed me into a Ravana. |
| Yen di yen di | Why girl, why girl? |
| Yen di yen di | Why girl, why girl? |
| Male | |
| {Yen di ipadi enakku | Why is it like this for me, girl? |
| Un mela kirukku | I have gone crazy for you. |
| Thaana vandha kanakku | The calculation that worked out on its own, |
| Thala keela irukku} (2) | Has now been turned upside down. |

You were gentle like a flower,
Now you have turned into a flower cobra.
You were like a timid deer,
You transformed me into a Ravana.
Why girl, why girl?

{ஏண்டி இப்படி எனக்கு
உன்மேல கிறுக்கு
தானாக வந்த கணக்கு

Why is it like this for me, girl?
I have gone crazy for you.
The calculation that worked out on its own,
Has now been turned upside down.

You have arrived all alone.
Time will become ripe for us,
This is the divine plan of the God of Love.

I was living only for that reason.
I caught a single glimpse of you one day,
And I blossomed inside.
Why girl?
காலத்துக்கும் நீயும்

நான் மூடி திறக்கும் போதும்
உன் நெனப்பு மட்டும் போதும்
For all eternity, you,
Must remain inside my eyes.
Whenever I close and open my eyes,
Just your memory is enough for me.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song captures a protagonist's playful distress and intense fascination over a woman who unexpectedly entered his life. Before her arrival, his life was simple and peaceful, but her charm has completely thrown him off balance. He humorously laments how her sweet presence turned confusing, turning his well-ordered world upside down and driving him mad with love.
