கண்ணே என் கண்களில்
கண்ணீராய் நீயடா
மௌனங்கள் மாயமாய் போகாதோ
Oh my darling, in my eyes
You are present as tears, my dear
Will these silences not magically vanish?
என்றும் உன் ஞாபகம்
கண் முன்னே தோன்றுதே
உன் உள்ளம் என் காதலால் மாறாதோ
Always your memory
Appears right before my eyes
Will your heart not change through my love?
கைக்கோர்த்து நாம்
நடந்த பாதைகள்
நீ இல்லை என்று குறை கூறுதே
மழைத்துளிகள் மண்ணை சேர்கையில்
உனது வாசம் என்னுள் நினைவூட்டுதே
Holding hands, we
The paths we walked upon
Complain that you are not there
When raindrops touch the soil
Your fragrance brings back memories inside me
ஆற்றிலே மிதக்கும் ஓடமாய்
பாதையை தேடினேன் உன் பாதத்தில்
Like a boat floating on a river
I searched for a direction at your feet
கண்ணே என் கண்களில்
கண்ணீராய் நீயடா
மௌனங்கள் மாயமாய் போகாதோ
Oh my darling, in my eyes
You are present as tears, my dear
Will these silences not magically vanish?

[Vocalizing]
இலை நீரில் மூழ்குமா
நிலா காதல் கூறுமா
துளி கூட துணையின்றி வாடுமா
Will a leaf drown in water?
Will the moon express love?
Will even a tiny drop wither without support?
கடிகார முட்கள் போல
உயிர் உன்னை சுற்றி வருதே
நிகழ் காலம் நிழல் இன்றி வாடுதே
Like the hands of a clock
My soul revolves around you
The present time languishes without a shadow
சொல்லாமலே மனங்களும்
சேர்ந்ததன்று
விடை சொல்லியே முறிந்தது
காதல் இன்று
Without even speaking, our hearts
United back then
Saying goodbye, it broke apart
Love today
காற்றிலே களையும் மேகமாய்
போகிறேன் தூரமாய்..ஓஹோ...ஓ
Like a cloud dispersing in the wind
I am fading into the distance... ohoo... oo
கண்ணே என் கண்களில்
கண்ணீராய் நீயடா
மௌனங்கள் மாயமாய் போகாதோ
Oh my darling, in my eyes
You are present as tears, my dear
Will these silences not magically vanish?
என்றும் உன் ஞாபகம்
கண் முன்னே தோன்றுதே
உன் உள்ளம் என் காதலால் மாறாதோ
Always your memory
Appears right before my eyes
Will your heart not change through my love?
கைக்கோர்த்து நாம்
நடந்த பாதைகள்
நீ இல்லை என்று குறை கூறுதே
மழைத்துளிகள் மண்ணை சேர்கையில்
உனது வாசம் என்னுள் நினைவூட்டுதே
Holding hands, we
The paths we walked upon
Complain that you are not there
When raindrops touch the soil
Your fragrance brings back memories inside me
ஆற்றிலே மிதக்கும் ஓடமாய்
