ஓ ஐ லவ் ஹூ லவ்
ஐ லவ் ஹூ லவ்
பெண்ணெல்லாம் பெண்ணில்லை
இந்த பெண்ணைப் போல் ரம்பை கூட இல்லை
மைசெல்ப் சம்திங் சூப்பர்.....
Oh I love who loves
I love who loves
All women are not truly women
Even Rambha is not like this woman
Myself something super
ஐ லவ் ஹூ லவ்
பெண்ணெல்லாம் பெண்ணில்லை
இந்த பெண்ணைப் போல் ரம்பை கூட இல்லை
மைசெல்ப் சம்திங் சூப்பர்.....
I love who loves
All women are not truly women
Even Rambha is not like this woman
Myself something super
சங்கீதம் எந்நாளும் பொன்னானது
சந்தோசம் இல்லாமல் ஏன் வாழ்வது
பெண்ணாசை இல்லாத உலகம் ஏது
பேராசை வந்தாலும் சுகமானது...
Music is always golden
Why live without happiness?
Which world exists without the desire for a woman?
Even if excessive desire comes, it is pleasant
கண்ணுக்குள்ளே பெண்ணை வைத்து
கைகள் ரெண்டில் கிண்ணம் வைத்து
வாழ்ந்தாலே இதமானது.......
Keeping a woman inside the eyes
Holding a goblet in both hands
Living life like that is soothing
ஐ லவ் ஹூ லவ்
பெண்ணெல்லாம் பெண்ணில்லை
இந்த பெண்ணைப் போல் ரம்பை கூட இல்லை
மைசெல்ப் சம்திங் சூப்பர்.....
I love who loves
All women are not truly women
Even Rambha is not like this woman
Myself something super
நாள்தோறும் கலை உள்ளம் வளர்கின்றது
மேல்நாடும் கீழ் நாடும் இணைகின்றது
எல்லாமே வெகுவாக குறைகின்றது
இரவெல்லாம் பகலாக தெரிகின்றது
Every day the artistic mind grows
The West and the East are uniting
Everything is reducing greatly
All night long it appears like daytime
ஆடிப் பார்ப்போம் பாடிப் பார்ப்போம்
காலம் வந்தால் ஓடி போவோம்
நம் வாழ்வை யார் கேட்பது.....
Let us try dancing, let us try singing
When time comes, we will run away
Who is there to question our life?
ஐ லவ் ஹூ லவ்
பெண்ணெல்லாம் பெண்ணில்லை
இந்த பெண்ணைப் போல் ரம்பை கூட இல்லை
