| Male | |
| Mann meedhu vandha | Who came upon the earth |
| Penn dhevadhai nee | You are a female angel |
| Ponn meani pada | As your golden body touched mine |
| Ennai katti kondaayee | You embraced me tightly |
| Male | |
| Kanngal moodavilla | My eyes did not close |
| Kaigal koorkavillai | My hands did not entwine |
| Vaarthai pesa villai | No words were spoken |
| Ennul maayam seithayee | Yet you worked magic within me |
| Male | |
| Iru uyir thudikkum | Two lives throb together |
| Iravu pagal endrume | Always, night and day |
| Muzhumathiyai naan kaana | For me to gaze upon the full moon |
| Nooru jenmam poodhadhae | A hundred lifetimes are not enough |
| Male | |
| Unai sutriye varuven | I will keep revolving around you |
| Adhai vida thevai illai yedhum ivulagil | Nothing else is needed in this world beyond that |
| Kannam kuzhi vizha neeyum | When your dimples form as you |
| Sirithida bothai yerum yerum | Smile, an intoxication rises and grows |

| Endhan uyirai vida | More than my very life itself |
| Azhage un koondhal kaattil | My beautiful one, in the forest of your hair |
| Ennai pudhaithida | To bury myself completely |
| Male | |
| Mudhal murai parpathu pol | As if beholding for the first time |
| Undhan mugam ingu verkiradhe | Your face here glistens with sweat |
| Malargalin panithuzhiyai | Like dew drops resting on flowers |
| Un dhegam nanaigirathe | Your body gets drenched softly |
| Female | |
| Pudhu ulagam ingu pirakka | As a new world is born right here |

ஹம்மிங் :
……………………
Who came upon the earth
You are a female angel
As your golden body touched mine
You embraced me tightly
மண் மீது வந்த
பெண் தேவதை நீ
பொன் மேனி பட
என்னை கட்டி கொண்டாயே
My eyes did not close
My hands did not entwine
No words were spoken
Yet you worked magic within me
கண்கள் மூடவில்லை
கைகள் கோர்க்கவில்லை
வார்த்தை பேசவில்லை
என்னுள் மாயம் செய்தாயே
Two lives throb together
Always, night and day
For me to gaze upon the full moon
A hundred lifetimes are not enough
ஓஹ் இரு உயிர் துடிக்கும்
இரவு பகல் என்றுமே
முழுமதியை நான் காண
நூறு ஜென்மம் போதாதே
I will keep revolving around you
Nothing else is needed in this world beyond that
When your dimples form as you
Smile, an intoxication rises and grows
உனை சுற்றியே வருவேனே
அதை விட தேவை இல்லை ஏதும் இவ்வுலகில்
கண்ணம் குழி விழ நீயும்
சிரித்திட போதை ஏறும்
During the night time
As soft curtains fall
My love, the sound of your kiss
Pulls me in tightly
ஹம்மிங் :
.............
Slowly, slowly
More than my very life itself
My beautiful one, in the forest of your hair
To bury myself completely
இரவு நேரம்
சிறு திரைகளிட
அன்பே உன் முத்தச்சத்தம்
கட்டி இழுத்திட
As if beholding for the first time
Your face here glistens with sweat
Like dew drops resting on flowers
Your body gets drenched softly
மெல்ல மெல்ல
எந்தன் உயிரை விட
அழகே உன் கூந்தல் காட்டில்
என்னை புதைத்திட
As a new world is born right here
With you and me abiding in it
To gaze at you constantly and admire you
To hold and carry you close upon my chest
முதல் முறை பார்ப்பது போல்
உந்தன் முகம் இங்கு வேர்கிறதே
மலர்களின் பனி துளியாய்
உன் தேகம் நனைகிறதே
Who came upon the earth
You are a female angel
As your golden body touched mine
You embraced me tightly
புது உலகம் இங்கு பிறக்க
அதில் நீயும் நானும் இருக்க
உன்னை பார்த்து பார்த்து ரசிக்க
எந்தன் மார்பில் நானும் சுமக்க
My eyes did not close
My hands did not entwine
No words were spoken
Yet you worked magic within me
மண் மீது வந்த
பெண் தேவதை நீ
பொன் மேனி பட
என்னை கட்டி கொண்டாயே
கண்கள் மூடவில்லை
கைகள் கோர்க்கவில்லை
வார்த்தை பேசவில்லை
என்னுள் மாயம் செய்தாயே
ஹம்மிங் :
