Hmm mm mm mm mmm
Oo. Oo.. Oohoo…
In this love, once again,
the moment I fall,
even to hold hands,
just one hand of yours is enough, my dear.
Looking into your unblinking eyes,
my heart rests in deep peace.
Clothes, body, and life—
transcending all three,
you and me here,
love has brought together.
In a world of our own,
for us to live from now on,
love will continue.
Ho ho-oh
A second, a moment, an age—
transcending all three,
within you and me here,
love keeps growing.
Transcending the earth and all vast space,
love spreads out.
That you were separated from me that day—
whose conspiracy was it?
What joined me with you today
is the river of love.
From now on, these other people
are not needed.
To stop this love,
there is no one.
A smile is the instant reaction when you blossom,
aren't you the paintbrush that paints it?
Just one face,
just one voice,
your scent around me at all times.
When I close my eyes,
you are my only dream, my love.
Applying kohl to my eyes,
you opened my world,
and using that same kohl,
I reached you again.
You dissolved like a healing balm,
you became precious nectar, and were reborn.
Hmm mm mm mm mmm
Oh... oh... oho...

Trivia

The film 'Bommai' (2023), directed by Radha Mohan and starring S.J. Suryah and Priya Bhavani Shankar, revolves around a protagonist who falls in love with a mannequin. Lyricist Madhan Karky crafted the lines to reflect both high poetic romance and the obsessive, otherworldly nature of the protagonist's love, composed to Yuvan Shankar Raja's soulful score.
