என்னம்மா என்னம்மா இருக்காடா
மொத்தம்மா மொத்தம்மா கவுத்தாடா
தங்கமா தங்கமா ஜொலிச்சாடா
போதை காடா
How amazing she is, man!
She completely bowled me over, man!
She shone like pure gold, man!
A forest of intoxication!
கொஞ்சமா கொஞ்சமா சிரிச்சாடா
பங்கமா பங்கமா முடிச்சாடா
எங்கமா போலவே அழகா இருக்காடா
She gave just a tiny smile, man!
She totally finished me off, man!
She is as beautiful as my mother, man!
ஹே அவ நெனப்பா கெடக்கேன் தவிக்கேன்
அவ மொறச்சா முழியா முழிக்கேன்
அவ நடக்கும் வழியில் தெனமும்
அலையுறேன் நானும்
Hey, I lie restless, immersed in her thoughts!
If she glares, I stare helplessly like a fool!
Every day on the path where she walks,
I too wander around aimlessly!
அவ இமையா பொறக்க துடிக்கேன்
அவ கனவா கடத்த நெனைக்கேன்
அதை நடத்தி முடிப்பேன் கொடுப்பேன்
ரசிப்பேன் தெனம் தெனம் தாங்குவேனே
I long to be born as her eyelash!
I wish to kidnap her dreams!
I will make that happen and give my all,
I will cherish it every day and endure it!
என்னம்மா என்னம்மா இருக்காடா
மொத்தம்மா மொத்தம்மா கவுத்தாடா
தங்கமா தங்கமா ஜொலிச்சாடா
போதை காடா
How amazing she is, man!
She completely bowled me over, man!
She shone like pure gold, man!
A forest of intoxication!
மொதவாட்டி புரியல பெருசா
மனசோட ஓரசுரா தினுசா
உயிரெல்லாம் ஒலபுறா கலக்குறா
புதுசாக பொறந்தேனே
The first time, I didn't understand it much,
She brushes against my heart in a unique way,
She stirs up and shakes my entire soul,
I felt like I was born anew!
அலையாமே வீட்டுக்குள்ள இருந்தும்
பலவாட்டி குளிக்குறேன் தினமும்
அழகா நான் கொழம்புறேன் குதிக்குறேன் உன்னாலே
Even without roaming outside, sitting inside the house,
I take a bath multiple times a day!
I beautifully get confused and jump with joy because of you!
அப்பப்பா ஒரு பார்வையத்தான் வச்சா
கண்ணுக்குள்ள நியாபகமா தைச்சா
என்ன வேணும்முன்னு என்னை கேட்டா
உன்ன மட்டும்தான் கேட்பேன்
Oh my, she cast just a single glance at me,
She stitched it as a memory inside my eyes!
If anyone asks me what I want,
I will ask only for you!
தப்பு ஒன்னு செஞ்சு மாற்று வேதனையா
தனிமையில் நான் பார்க்குறேன் எப்போதும்
ஒருவாட்டி நீ வாடி சேரலாமாடி
Making a mistake and enduring the altered pain,
I always face it alone in solitude.
Come to me just once, girl, let us join together!
என்னம்மா என்னம்மா இருக்காடா
மொத்தம்மா மொத்தம்மா கவுத்தாடா
தங்கமா தங்கமா ஜொலிச்சாடா
போதை காடா
How amazing she is, man!
She completely bowled me over, man!
She shone like pure gold, man!
A forest of intoxication!
கொஞ்சமா கொஞ்சமா சிரிச்சாடா
பங்கமா பங்கமா முடிச்சாடா
எங்கமா போலவே அழகா இருக்காடா டேய்
