Why does my heart leap
And dance in joy?
Is it the wonder of our eyes meeting
And speaking to each other?
எந்தன் உள்ளம் துள்ளி
விளையாடுவதும் ஏனோ
கண்ணும் கண்ணும் ஒன்றாய் கூடி
பேசும் விந்தை தானோ
Why does my heart leap
And dance in joy?
Is it the wonder of our eyes meeting
And speaking to each other?
எந்தன் உள்ளம் துள்ளி
விளையாடுவதும் ஏனோ
கண்ணும் கண்ணும் ஒன்றாய் கூடி
பேசும் விந்தை தானோ
My desires are overflowing;
To whom shall I tell them?
My desires are overflowing;
To whom shall I tell them?
ஆசைதான் மீறுதே
யாரிடம் சொல்வேன்
எவ்விதம் அவன் உள்ளம்
நான்தான் அறிவேன்
How can I ever understand
What lies within his heart?
How can I ever understand
What lies within his heart?
எண்ணாத எண்ணம் எல்லாம்
எண்ணி எண்ணி ஏங்குறேன்
எந்தன் ஆசை நிறைவேறும்
நாளும் எந்த நாளோ
Pondering thoughts I never imagined,
I keep yearning again and again.
On which day will my deep desire
Finally be fulfilled?
எண்ணாத எண்ணம் எல்லாம்
எண்ணி எண்ணி ஏங்குறேன்
எந்தன் ஆசை நிறைவேறும்
நாளும் எந்த நாளோ
Pondering thoughts I never imagined,
I keep yearning again and again.
On which day will my deep desire
Finally be fulfilled?
எந்தன் உள்ளம் துள்ளி
விளையாடுவதும் ஏனோ
கண்ணும் கண்ணும் ஒன்றாய் கூடி
பேசும் விந்தை தானோ…….
கண்ணும் கண்ணும் ஒன்றாய் கூடி
பேசும் விந்தை தானோ…….
