போற போக்கில் போயம் சொன்னியே
Just with a single girl
Just with a single glance
Inside a single dot, I...
Without stating any meaning
Leaving nothing remaining
You recited a poem on the fly

Becoming a ceiling fan myself
You made me spin around just by looking at you

Your fragrance feels chillingly cool
Your love pushes me forward

You are indeed my multi-colored deer
Hoo oo oo ooo

Is your smile a sweet malpua?
Even your earring is a musical note... eyyy

Trivia
'Jigarthanda' literally translates to 'cool heart' in Hindi/Urdu and is also a iconic cold beverage originating in Madurai, Tamil Nadu. Lyricist Pa. Vijay uses this cross-linguistic pun to seamlessly blend the North Indian title context of 'Tere Ishk Mein' with playful Tamil poetry composed by A. R. Rahman.
