ஐ விரல்கள் சிறகுகளாய் முளைக்குதடி
என் கால்கள் தரையினிலே மிதக்குதடி
These fingers are growing into wings
My feet are floating above the ground
மச்சி மாட்டிக்கின்னு மாட்டிக்கின்னு
மாட்டிக்கின்னு மாட்டிக்கின்னு
மாட்டிக்கின்னு மாட்டிக்கின்னு
தௌசன் வாட்ஸ் பல்பு உன்ன
பியூச கழட்டி உட்டுடுவா
சோக்காகீர ஐ பாட் உன்ன
கொரியன் செட்டா ஆக்கிடுவா
Dude, you are trapped, trapped, trapped
Trapped, trapped
You, who are like a thousand-watt bulb
She will unscrew your fuse and leave
You, who are like a sleek iPad
She will turn you into a cheap knockoff set
டாரா கிழிஞ்சு தொங்கப்போற
அவ சோக்கா சீன போட்டுடுவா
நீ டாரா கிழிஞ்சு தொங்கப்போற
அவ சோக்கா சீன போட்டுடுவா
You are going to hang torn into shreds
She will act cool and put up a drama
You are going to hang torn into shreds
She will act cool and put up a drama
ஐ விரல்கள் சிறகாய் முளைக்குதடி
என் கால்கள் தரையினில் மிதக்குதடி
என் தலையினில் மரைகளும் கழண்டதடி
உன் கண்கள் உருண்டையில் சுழலுதடி
These fingers are growing into wings
My feet are floating on the ground
The screws in my head have come loose
My world rotates in the circle of your eyes
பக்கம் நிற்க கொஞ்சிப்பேச
ஆசை உள்ளே வெடிக்குதே
கண்ணில் உன்னை மென்றுதின்ன
இதய பற்கள் துடிக்குதே
To stand nearby and speak lovingly
Desire is exploding deep inside me
To chew and eat you with my eyes
The teeth of my heart are throbbing
அச்சமின்றி உதடு பின்ன
காதல் நரம்பு தூண்டுதே
கரைந்து உருகி காதல் கொள்ள
உன்னை மனது கேட்குதே
Without fear, as lips entwine
The nerve of love gets stimulated
To melt and dissolve into love
My heart keeps asking for you
மாயங்கள் செய்திட
புன்னகை வீசிட
கைது நான் ஆகிட
காரணம் எல்லாமே நீதானடி
To perform magic spells
To throw a sweet smile
Making me a helpless captive
You alone are the sole reason for it all
சட்டங்கள் ஓய்ந்திட
முத்தங்கள் ஊறிட
ஊமை நான் ஆகிட
சொகத்தைக் காட்டி நீ செல்வாயடி
As rules and regulations fade away
As kisses well up like a spring
As I become completely speechless
You pack away my sorrow and depart
டொக்கு பீசு ஐஞ்சுகாசு
கிழிஞ்ச நோட்டு ஓட்ட சிம்மு
டொக்கு பீசு ஐஞ்சுகாசு
கிழிஞ்ச நோட்டு ஓட்ட சிம்மு

A worn-out piece worth five cents
A torn currency note and a broken SIM card
A worn-out piece worth five cents
A torn currency note and a broken SIM card
She flipped everything upside down smoothly

பிட்ட போட்டு லைன போட்டு
நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள டேரா போட்டு
அமுக்கிப்புட்டா அலேக்கா
Throwing bait and setting a line
Plotting a route and making a plan
Throwing bait and setting a line
Pitching a camp deep inside my heart
She snatched it all away effortlessly
என் நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள
பட்டாம்பூச்சி பறக்கவச்சாளே
என் மண்டைக்குள்ள
பூச்செடிய நட்டுவச்சாளே
Butterflies inside my heart
She made them fly all around
Inside the garden of my mind
She planted a flower plant
என் செல்லுக்குள்ள
நம்பரத்தான் பதியவச்சாளே
புது போதையில
என்ன அவ மிதக்கவச்சாளே
Her phone number inside my cell phone
She saved it securely
In a whole new state of intoxication
She made me float endlessly

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song portrays the intoxicating feeling of falling head over heels in love, combined with playful banter from friends mocking the lover's vulnerable state. The protagonist describes feeling weightless and ecstatic, as though his fingers have sprouted wings and his mind has lost its rational screws under his lover's enchanting spell. Concurrently, local friends offer cheeky warnings about how a powerful, sharp guy gets rendered utterly helpless once hit by love's arrow.
