தட்டாமல் திறக்கும்
கேளாமல் கொடுக்கும்
எந்நாளும் உனதல்லவோ என் இள நெஞ்சம்
துயிலாமல் இருக்கும்
துணை தேடி தவிக்கும்
பெண் பாவை மணமல்லவோ உன் மலர் மஞ்சம்
Opening without even a knock
Giving without even being asked
Isn't my young heart always yours?
Remaining sleepless without rest
Yearning in search of companionship
Isn't this woman's heart your floral bed?

சொல்லாமல் கொள்ளாமல் பெறலாம்
இந்த சொர்க்கத்தை நீ தேடி வரலாம்
முந்நூறு முத்தாரம் இடலாம்
அதில் என் பங்கு சரி பாதி எனலாம்
We can attain it quietly and effortlessly
You may come seeking this paradise
We can string three hundred pearl necklaces of kisses
In which my share can be said to be an exact half
In which my share can be said to be an exact half
