Pennae en kannae
En pakkathula konja neram vaayendi
Summa adi summa
En nenjoram kaadha vechi kelendi
Konjam naala ketkkiren
Adhu en perathaan sollithaan thudikuthu
Kanna moodi thoongiren
Un sirippu than uyira kudikudhu
Adi yeno yeno theriyalayae
Idhu kaadhal nooya purialayae

Girl, my precious darling,
come by my side for a little while.
Just once, oh girl, just like that,
place your ear against my chest and listen.
I have been listening to it for a few days now,
and it beats only calling out my name!
Whenever I close my eyes and try to sleep,
your smile steals my very life away.
Oh, I truly don't know why,
I can't tell if this is lovesickness.
Girl, my precious darling,
come by my side for a little while.
Just once, oh girl, just like that,
place your ear against my chest and listen.
Don't sweet-talk me, change my mind,
and cleverly lure me in.
Male: Don't put a bridle on love
and lock it up inside your heart.
Like an early morning dream
chasing after me,
don't try to boss me around, hey!
You are my moon,
the celebration of my love,
come, let's go on a little stroll.
Even if you stand on your head,
I will not fall for you, just get lost!
I have an endless longing for you,
so don't put up this stubborn pride.
Female: Don't cast your fishing hook
searching for fish swimming in the deep waters.
Like rain falling down
drop by drop,
you have filled my thoughts every single day, hey!
Oh, don't tell me to go away, girl,
and at this very moment,
don't hoist the flag of love!
Oh, without you in my life,
I cannot live at all,
come, please come to me!
Girl, my precious darling,
come by my side for a little while.
Just once, oh girl, just like that,
place your ear against my chest and listen.
I have been listening to it for a few days now,
and it beats only calling out my name!
Whenever I close my eyes and try to sleep,
your smile steals my very life away.
Oh, I truly don't know why,
I can't tell if this is lovesickness.
