ஆண் குழு :
தன தானேன திரனா திரனா
தன தானேன திரனா திரனா...
I have never seen eyes like these before
I have no words to express what I feel
My soul seems to depart from me
When you open your eyes and look at me
My heart breaks into pieces
When you distance yourself away
இப்படி ஓர் கண்களை கண்டதில்லை
என்ன சொல்ல என்னிடம் வார்த்தை இல்லை
உயிர் பிரிந்து போகுதே
இமை விரித்து என்னை நீ பார்க்கையில்
மனம் உடைந்து போகுதே
தூரம் போகையில்
I lose myself in thoughts of you
I converse with myself every single day
I love you with all my soul
I breathe while losing my senses
என்னை மறந்து யோசிக்கிறேன்
எனக்குள் தினம் பேசுகிறேன்
உயிர் நிறைய நேசிக்கிறேன்
நினைவிழந்து சுவாசிக்கிறேன்
I have never stood in such a state before
I have no words to express what I feel
I soar high like a bird
As you slowly draw closer to me
My heart flutters with agitation
Under your mesmerizing gaze
இப்படி ஓர் நிலையும் நின்றதில்லை
என்ன சொல்ல என்னிடம் வார்த்தை இல்லை
பறவைபோல பறக்கிறேன்
என் அருகினில் மெல்ல நீ நெருங்கையில்
மனம் படபடத்து தவிக்கிறேன்
உந்தன் பார்வையில்
I lose myself in thoughts of you
I converse with myself every single day
I love you with all my soul
I breathe while losing my senses
என்னை மறந்து யோசிக்கிறேன்
எனக்குள் தினம் பேசுகிறேன்
உயிர் நிறைய நேசிக்கிறேன்
நினைவிழந்து சுவாசிக்கிறேன்
Ah...
ஹா....ஆஅ....ஆஅ....ஆஅ....ஆ.....
It turns into a tender child
Love itself
Disturbing my sleep throughout the nights
கைக் குழந்தை போல மாறுதே
காதலும்
இரவுகளில் தூக்கத்தை கலைக்கும்
It turns into a pair of handcuffs
Every minute
Moves as slowly as an entire era
கை விலங்கு போல ஆகுதே
நிமிடமும்
யுகம் என மெல்ல அது நகரும்
My love, oh my love, by my heart's side
I experienced a secret emotional turmoil
அன்பே என் அன்பே
என் நெஞ்சோரமாய்
ரகசிய கலவரம் கண்டேன்
Just to convey my love to you
I stayed alive, my dear...
உன்னிடத்தில் என் அன்பை
நான் சொல்ல
உயிரோடு வாழ்ந்தேனடி...
I lose myself in thoughts of you
I converse with myself every single day
I love you with all my soul
I breathe while losing my senses
என்னை மறந்து யோசிக்கிறேன்
எனக்குள் தினம் பேசுகிறேன்
உயிர் நிறைய நேசிக்கிறேன்
நினைவிழந்து சுவாசிக்கிறேன்
Ah... like raindrops
In the fleeting moments shaped like us
The moisture lingers forever with the earth

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song is a deeply expressive romantic track portraying the overwhelm of profound love. The lovers describe how the sight and proximity of each other induce feelings of ecstasy, agitation, and sheer devotion. Love is poetically compared to a child, handcuffs of time, and raindrops leaving moisture on the soil even after they disappear.
