Enna indha maatramo en manasu vazhikudhae
Kannu rendum kaandhamo enna katti izhukudhae
Un poo mugathil en thaai mugathai naan paarthenae
Un nyaabagathai en aayul varai naan serpenae
Nee vandhadhum ennaanadho
En vaazhkaiyae veraanadho
Enna indha maatramo en manasu vazhikudhae
Kannu rendum kaandhamo enna katti izhukudhae
Oh un pun siripil en uzhagathaiyae naan paarthenae
Un nyaabagathai en aayul varai naan serpenae
Nee vandhadhum ennaanadho
En vaazhkaiyae veraanadho
Chinna chinna punnagaiyil ennai parithaai
Vanna vanna kanavugal kannil koduthaai
Siriya idhayathil periya kaadhalai thandhaayadi en anbae
Mella mella manasukul idam pidithaai
Minminikum minnalaipol oli koduthaai
Urangum nerathil ninaivin orathil
Vandhaayada en anbae
Oru paarvai paarkum bodhilae
Endhan paadham vaanam yerudhae
Maru paarvai paarkum bodhilae
Endhan jenma saabam theerudhae
En kaal kolusu un perai solla naan kettenae
Nee vandhadhum ennaanadho

Enna indha maatramo en manasu vazhikudhae
Kannu rendum kaandhamo enna katti izhukudhae
Sutri undhan mugamandri yedhum illaiyae

Unnai paarthu konji pesa thaan
Endhan aasai thaavi odudhae
Unnai paarthu pesum nerathil
Endhan vaarthai oomai aagudhae
Kan paarvai rendum sollaadhadhaiya

What is this change? My heart aches so much.
Are both your eyes magnets? They pull and draw me in.
In your gentle face, I saw the face of my mother.
I will cherish your memories for the rest of my life.
What happened to me once you arrived?
Has my entire life completely changed?
What is this change? My heart aches so much.
Are both your eyes magnets? They pull and draw me in.
Oh, in your gentle smile, I saw my whole world.
I will cherish your memories for the rest of my life.
What happened to me once you arrived?
Has my entire life completely changed?
With your sweet little smiles, you stole me away.
You filled my eyes with colorful dreams.
In this little heart, you placed such a vast love, my girl.
Slowly and quietly, you made a place in my heart.
Like sparkling lightning, you brought light into my life.
When I drift off to sleep, at the edge of my memories,
you came to me, my love.
The moment you look at me just once,
my feet lift off and soar into the sky.
The moment you look at me again,
the curse of my lifetime is washed away.
I heard my anklets softly whisper your name.
What happened to me once you arrived?
Has my entire life completely changed?
What is this change? My heart aches so much.
Are both your eyes magnets? They pull and draw me in.
All around me, there is nothing except your face.
Other than that, I have no trouble at all.
You take my breath away, and you give it right back.
My helpless heart struggles to cope.
Until yesterday, my forehead never felt this fever.
Nor did I ever look at the stars and speak to them.
You dive into my soul and swim through it.
And my heart celebrates in pure joy.
Just to look at you and whisper loving words,
my eager desire leaps and runs forward.
Yet the moment I look at you to speak,
my words fall completely silent.
Could your lips ever say anything...
...that your eyes have not already told?
What happened to me once you arrived?
Has my entire life completely changed?
What is this change? My heart aches so much.
Are both your eyes magnets? They pull and draw me in.
In your gentle face, I saw the face of my mother.
I will cherish your memories for the rest of my life.
What happened to me once you arrived?
Has my entire life completely changed?
