குட்டி குட்டி
நெஞ்சிலே காதல்
வந்ததும் மொட்டு
விட்டு இலட்சம்
பூ பூக்க
In my tiny little heart
As love arrived
Leaving buds, a hundred thousand
Flowers bloom
எட்டி எட்டி
போகிறேன் என்ன
செய்வது முத்தமிட்டு
என்னை நீ தாக்க
I step back and back
What to do?
Kissing me
As you attack me
உன்னோட சாக்லேட்
நான் தான்டா என்னோட
டார்கெட் நீ தான்டா மிஸ்
ஆகி நீயும் போனாலும்
விடமாட்டேனே நான்
Your chocolate
Is indeed me
My target
Is indeed you
Even if missed
And you go away
I will not let you go
{ இதயம் இதயம்
இதயம் உன் சிரிப்பினிலே
சிதறியதே உலகம் உலகம்
உலகம் உன் அசைவினிலே
அசைகிறதே } (2)
{Heart, heart, heart
Shattered in your smile
World, world, world
Moves by your movement} (2)
...........................
..................
துள்ளி துள்ளி
நேற்று எந்தன் நெஞ்சோடு
ரொம்ப மன துன்பம் வந்ததே
என்ன இது என்ன இது என்றேனே
இந்த இம்சைதானே காதல் என்றதே
Leaping and bouncing yesterday
Within my heart
So much distress arrived
"What is this, what is this?" I asked
"Is it this pleasant torment?"
Love replied
அட உளறாமல்
உளறுகிறேன் உந்தன்
பேரை சொல்லி சொல்லியே
தினம் மயங்காமல் மயங்குகிறேன்
மெளனமாக பேசி பேசியே
Oh, I blabber without meaning to
Repeatedly uttering your name
Daily I swoon helplessly
Speaking silently on and on
காதல் போதை
தெளியாதே கண்கள்
தூங்க முடியாதே என்னால்
தாங்க முடியாதே உன்னைக்
கொஞ்சி கொஞ்சி
கொல்லப்போகிறேன்
The intoxication of love does not fade
My eyes cannot sleep
I cannot bear it anymore
I am going to cuddle you to death
{ இதயம் இதயம்
இதயம் உன் சிரிப்பினிலே
சிதறியதே உலகம் உலகம்
உலகம் உன் அசைவினிலே
அசைகிறதே } (2)
{Heart, heart, heart
Shattered in your smile
World, world, world
Moves by your movement} (2)
அசைகிறதே யே
ஆ..... ஓ.... இதயம் இதயம்
ஆ..... ஓ...
Moves..yeah..aaa..oohhh..
Heart..heart..aaahh..oohhhh..
