உடனே திரும்பும் கண்களும் இதழும்
தயங்குது கொஞ்சம் விளையாட

The eyes and lips that turn instantly
Hesitate a little to play
It pleads immediately
துள்ளுது நெஞ்சம் தழுவுது பக்கம்
இறுக்கி அன்ணைக்க
சிரிக்குது உதடும் சிணுங்குது வெட்கம்
இதழ்கள் இனிக்க
The heart leaps and embraces nearby
To hug tightly
The lips smile and shyness whimpers
Making the lips sweet
தொட தொட லவ்-சு ஃபீல் ஆனதே
கட கடனு ஜாலி ஆனதே
பட பட படனு தாக்குதே
