Hey, between a wife and a husband,
There needs to be understanding.
If you let go of your suspicion,
Happiness will surely increase.
உரிமை இருக்கு
எனக்கு ஒளிவு மறைவு

I have every right,
So why have secrets and hiding?

Hey, between a wife and a husband,

பொண்டாட்டி உன்
பொறுப்பு என்ன உன் இடுப்பு
மடிப்பில் விழுந்த என்னை
எழுந்து போக செய்யாதே
Wife, what is your responsibility?
In the folds of your waist,
Me who has fallen,
Do not make me get up and leave!
கண்ணாளா உன்
பொறுப்பு என்ன என் கட்டில்
அறைக்கும் சமையல்
அறைக்கும் கொரைகள்
எதுவும் வைக்காதே
My beloved, what is your responsibility?
In my bedroom,
And in the kitchen,
Do not leave any shortcomings.
எல்லாம் நல்ல
இருக்கும் போது வீட்டு
தலைவி சுந்தரி ஈர தல
இருக்கும் போது என்னை
கொஞ்சம் ஆதரி
When everything is going fine,
You are the beautiful head of the house.
When life has its ups and downs,
Support me just a little.
அணைப்பதிலே
அன்பிருந்தா போதுமையா
If there is love in your embrace,
That is more than enough...

உன் பிள்ளை அட
நான் தானே ஒரு பிள்ளை
கொடுக்க எனக்கு வைத்த
பிள்ளை யாரு நீ தானே
Your child,
Hey, isn't that me?
To bear a child for me,
The child destined for me,
Who else is it but you?
உன் பிள்ளை நான்
ஆனால் ஒரு பிள்ளை செய்யும்
தொண்டு யாவும் செய்ய
வேண்டும் தடுக்காதே
If I am
Your child,
All the mischief a child does,
Every little thing,
I must do, do not stop me.
போக போக கணவன்
மனைவி பேச்சு வார்த்தை
குறையனும் மனசு ரெண்டு
புரிஞ்சி நடக்க காலமா வந்து
சேரனும்
As time goes by,
Between husband and wife,
Verbal arguments should decrease.
Both minds,
To understand each other and live,
Time itself should bring harmony.
வான வில்லை
போல் கூட வரணும்
மறைஞ்சிடனும்
Like a rainbow,
We should appear together,
And fade away together.
