கண்ணும் கண்ணும்
மூடிக்கொள்ள வெக்கம் கரை
மீறிச் செல்ல அக்கம் பக்கம்
யாரும் இல்ல அய்யய்யோ
என்னாகுமோ நெஞ்சம் நெஞ்சம்
முட்டிக்கொள்ள அச்சம் மட்டும்
விட்டுத் தள்ள சொல்ல ஒரு
வாா்த்தை இல்ல அய்யய்யோ
என்னாகுமோ
As eyes close and meet eyes,
Shyness overflows its banks,
With no one around us,
Oh dear, what will happen now?
அந்த வானவில்லின்
பாதி வெண்ணிலவில் மீதி
பெண்ணுருவில் வந்தாளே
இவள் தானா இவள் தானா
Half of that rainbow,
And the rest of the moon,
Came in the form of a woman... Is it her? Is it her?
மழை மின்னல்
என மோதி மந்திரங்கள்
ஓதி என் கனவை வென்றனே
இவன் தானா இவன் தானா
Striking like rain and lightning,
Chanting sacred spells,
He won over my dreams... Is it him? Is it him?
போட்டி போட்டு
என் விழி ரெண்டும் உன்னை
பாா்க்க முந்திச் செல்லும்
இமைகள் கூட எதிாில் நீ
வந்தால் சுமைகள் ஆகுதே
ஓ இவள்தானா ஓ இவள்தானா
Competing with each other, both my eyes,
Rush forward to look at you.
Even my eyelids, when you come before me,
Become a heavy burden... Oh, is it her?
Oh, is it her?
கண்ணும் கண்ணும்
மூடிக்கொள்ள வெக்கம் கரை
மீறிச் செல்ல அக்கம் பக்கம்
யாரும் இல்ல அய்யய்யோ
என்னாகுமோ நெஞ்சம் நெஞ்சம்
முட்டிக்கொள்ள அச்சம் மட்டும்
விட்டுத் தள்ள சொல்ல ஒரு
வாா்த்தை இல்ல அய்யய்யோ
என்னாகுமோ
As eyes close and meet eyes,
Shyness overflows its banks,
With no one around us,
Oh dear, what will happen now?
வினா வினா
ஆயிரம் அதன் விடை
எல்லாம் உன் விழியிலே
விடை விடை முடிவிலே
பல வினா வந்தால் அது காதலே
A thousand questions arise,
All their answers are in your eyes.
In the end, after many answers,
If many questions still arise, that is love.
தனியே நீ வீதியிலே
நடந்தால் அது பேரழகு
ஒரு பூ கோா்த்த நூலாக
தெருவே அங்கு தொிகிறது
When you walk alone,
On the street, it is utter beauty.
Like a thread strung with flowers,
The street itself appears there.
காய்ச்சல் வந்து
நீச்சல் போட ஆறாய்
மாறினேன் இவன் தானா
இவன் தானா
Fever came and began to swim,
I transformed into a river.
Is it him? Is it him?
குடை குடை
ஏந்தியே வரும் மழை
ஒன்றை இங்கு பாா்க்கிறேன்
இவள் இல்லா வாழ்க்கையே
ஒரு பிழை என்று நான் உணா்கிறேன்
Holding an umbrella,
I see a unique rain coming here.
A life without her,
I realize is a mistake.
அடடா உன் கண்
அசைவும் அதிரா உன்
புன்னகையும் உடனே
என் உயிா் பிசையும்
உடலில் ஒரு போ் அசையும்
Oh, the movement of your eyes,
And your non-vibrating gentle smile,
Instantly kneads my soul,
And a great desire moves within my body.
காற்றில் போட்ட
கோலம் போல நேற்றை
மறக்கிறேன் இவள் தானா
ஓ இவள் தானா
Like a rangoli drawn in the wind,
I forget about yesterday.
Is it her? Oh, is it her?
கண்ணும் கண்ணும்
மூடிக்கொள்ள வெக்கம் கரை
மீறிச் செல்ல அக்கம் பக்கம்
யாரும் இல்ல அய்யய்யோ
என்னாகுமோ நெஞ்சம் நெஞ்சம்
முட்டிக்கொள்ள அச்சம் மட்டும்
விட்டுத் தள்ள சொல்ல ஒரு
வாா்த்தை இல்ல அய்யய்யோ
என்னாகுமோ
As eyes close and meet eyes,
Shyness overflows its banks,
With no one around us,
Oh dear, what will happen now?
: Kannum kannum moodi kolla
As eyes close and meet eyes,
Vekkam karai meeri sella
Shyness overflows its banks,
Akkam pakkam yaarum illa
With no one around us,
Aiyaiyo ennagumooo
Oh dear, what will happen now?
Antha vaanavillin paadhi
Half of that rainbow,
Vennilavil meedhi
And the rest of the moon,
Pennuruvil vandhaale..ival dhaana..ival dhaana..
Came in the form of a woman... Is it her? Is it her?
Mazhai minnal ena mothi
Striking like rain and lightning,
Manthirangal othi
Chanting sacred spells,
En kanavai vendrane..ivan dhaana…ivan dhaana..
He won over my dreams... Is it him? Is it him?
Potti pottu en vizhi rendum
Competing with each other, both my eyes,
Unnai paarkka munthi sellum
Rush forward to look at you.
Imaigal kooda ethiril nee vandhaal
Even my eyelids, when you come before me,
Sumaigal aaguthe..ohhh..ival dhaana
Become a heavy burden... Oh, is it her?
Ohh ival dhaanaaa..
Oh, is it her?
Kannum kannum moodi kolla
As eyes close and meet eyes,
Vekkam karai meeri sella
Shyness overflows its banks,
Akkam pakkam yaarum illa
With no one around us,
Aiyaiyo ennagumooo
Oh dear, what will happen now?
Vinaa vina aayiram
A thousand questions arise,
Adhan vidai ellam un vizhiyile
All their answers are in your eyes.
Vidai vidai mudivile
In the end, after many answers,
Pala vina vanthaal athu kaadhale
If many questions still arise, that is love.
Thaniye nee veedhiyile
When you walk alone,
Nadanthaal athu perazhagu
On the street, it is utter beauty.
Oru poo kortha noolaaga
Like a thread strung with flowers,
Theruvae angu therigirathu
The street itself appears there.
Kaichal vanthu neechal poda
Fever came and began to swim,
Aaraai maarinen
I transformed into a river.
Ivan dhaana.. ivan dhaana..
Is it him? Is it him?
Kudai kudai yenthiye
Holding an umbrella,
Varum mazhai ondrai ingu paarkiren
I see a unique rain coming here.
Ival illa vaazhkaiye
A life without her,
Oru pizhai endru naan unargiren
I realize is a mistake.
Adada un kan asaivum
Oh, the movement of your eyes,
athiraa un punnagaiyum
And your non-vibrating gentle smile,
Udane en uyir pisaiyum
Instantly kneads my soul,
Udalil oor per asaiyum
And a great desire moves within my body.
Kaatril pota kolam pola
Like a rangoli drawn in the wind,
Netrai marakkiren
I forget about yesterday.
Ival dhaana..ohhh ival dhaana
Is it her? Oh, is it her?
Kannum kannum moodi kolla
As eyes close and meet eyes,
Vekkam karai meeri sella
Shyness overflows its banks,
Akkam pakkam yaarum illa
With no one around us,
Aiyaiyo ennagumooo
Oh dear, what will happen now?
