Irandu manam inaiya inaiya inaiya
Pirandha payan adaiya adaiya adaiya
Oor paarkka, kaikorkkum naal vandhadhe!
Ennaalum anbodu aanandhame!
En koottile oru oramaai irundhenada kanna
Varamaagave nee vandhadhaal thilaithenada
Thisaiyindri naan thedi thirindhen thaniyaagave kanne
Oliyaaga nee enai serndhadhaal pizhaithenadi
Kanavilum kandiraadhoru kaatchi ondrinai indru paarkkiren
Nijamidhu endru naanume nambidaamale killip paarkkiren
Irukkum kaalam yaavum undhan anaippinil
Nee endhan chella chinungalil
Anaikondu thaduthaalum nillaa
Punal idhu punal idhu – inbak
Kanal idhu kanal idhu – kaadhal!
Anaikondu thaduthaalum nillaa
Punal idhu punal idhu
Inbakanal idhu kanal idhu – kaadhal!
Irandu manam inaiya inaiya inaiya
Pirandha payan adaiya adaiya adaiya
Oor paarkka, kaikorkkum naal vandhadhe!
Ennaalum anbodu aanandhame!
As two hearts unite and come together,
As the very purpose of this birth is fulfilled,
The day has come to hold hands for all the town to see!
Forever filled with love and joy!
I was just resting in a corner of my nest, my dear,
Because you came as a blessing, I overflowed with happiness.
Without any direction, I wandered searching all alone, my dear,
Because you joined me as a guiding light, I was saved.
Today I see a sight I never even imagined in my dreams,
Unable to believe that this is real, I pinch myself to check.
For all the time I have, safe in your embrace,
And you, caught up in my playful tantrums...
It will not stop even if held back by a dam,
this is a flowing river, a river—a sweet
flame of joy, a flame—this love!
It will not stop even if held back by a dam,
this is a flowing river, a river,
a sweet flame of joy, a flame—this love!
As two hearts unite and come together,
As the very purpose of this birth is fulfilled,
The day has come to hold hands for all the town to see!
Forever filled with love and joy!
