I walked behind you.
Oh deer that came seeking,

வெள்ளியலை சத்தமிட்டு
வெண்கடலை முத்தமிட்டு
துள்ளித் துள்ளி பாடுகின்றதோ
Making noise, the silver waves
Kissing the vast ocean,
Are they dancing and singing with joy?
முத்தமிடும் சித்திரத்தை
முத்து நவரத்தினத்தை
அங்கும் இங்கும் தேடுகின்றதோ
The kissing portrait,
The precious pearl and nine gems,
Are they searching here and there?
வெள்ளியலை சத்தமிட்டு
வெண்கடலை முத்தமிட்டு
துள்ளித் துள்ளி பாடுகின்றதோ
Making noise, the silver waves
Kissing the vast ocean,
Are they dancing and singing with joy?
முத்தமிடும் சித்திரத்தை
முத்து நவரத்தினத்தை
அங்கும் இங்கும் தேடுகின்றதோ
The kissing portrait,
The precious pearl and nine gems,
Are they searching here and there?
காதல் உறவில் அதை தேடும்
காலம் உதவி செய்யக்கூடும்
Searching for love's relatives,
Male: Time might render help.

Male: Oh deer that came seeking,
It is I who see it today.
பட்டணத்து பச்சைக்கிளி
பட்டிக்காட்டு இச்சைக்கிளி
ஒன்றை ஒன்று தொட்டுக் கொள்ளுமோ
The green parrot of the city,
The loving parrot of the village,
Will they touch each other?
பட்டணத்தில் வந்த பின்னும்
பட்டிக்காட்டு பூவின் வண்ணம்
கண்ணிரண்டை விட்டுச் செல்லுமோ
Even after coming to the city,
Will the shade of the village flower
Ever leave both eyes?
நானோ அழகு வண்ண ரோஜா
நானோ அவள் விரும்பும் ராஜா ஹஹா..
I am a beautiful, colorful rose,
Male: And I am the king she desires.
Hahaa…
