ஜூலை மாத நிலவே மிக தூரமான உறவே
பறந்து பறந்து வருவேன்
உன் பரந்த இதயம் தொடுவேன்
உளியில் வடித்த சிலையே தினம் உயரும் தங்க விலையே
மின்னல் போல வருவேன் உன் ஜன்னல் ஓரம் விழுவேன்
ஹோ......ஓ.....என் நிலா என் இசபெல்லா....
Oh July moon, my far-away beloved
I will fly and fly to come to you
I will touch your expansive heart
Oh statue carved with a chisel, oh daily rising gold price
I will come like lightning and land by your window
Male: Ho... o... my moon, my Isabella...
ஹோ ஓ ஓ ஹோ ஓஒ ஓஒ ஹோ ஓஒ.....
Hoo oo oo hoo ooo ooo hoo ooo....
என்னை ஓர் காவல் தடுக்க முடியுமா முடியுமா
அன்பே சொல் காற்றை நிறுத்த முடியுமா முடியுமா
தொடவா......நிலவே......தொடுவேன் நிஜமே
மேக இடுக்கில் ஒளிந்து ஒளிந்து
மழை போல் வருவேன் மடி மேல் விழுவேன்
Can any guard stop me? Can they?
Tell me my love, can anyone stop the wind? Can they?
Shall I touch... oh moon... I will touch you in reality
Hiding between the clouds
I will come like rain and fall onto your lap
ஜூலை மாத நிலவே மிக தூரமான உறவே
பறந்து பறந்து வருவேன்
உன் பரந்த இதயம் தொடுவேன்
உளியில் வடித்த சிலையே
தினம் உயரும் தங்க விலையே
மின்னல் போல வருவேன்
உன் ஜன்னல் ஓரம் விழுவேன்
Oh July moon, my far-away beloved
I will fly and fly to come to you
I will touch your expansive heart
Oh statue carved with a chisel, oh daily rising gold price
I will come like lightning and land by your window
எங்கே உன் காலின் கொலுசு
ஒலிக்குமோ ஒலிக்குமோ
அங்கே என் இதயத் துடிப்பு
ஒலிக்குமே ஒலிக்குமே
செந்தேனே... நதியே... சிறு பூ மழையே
உலகின் கண்ணில் மண்ணைத் தூவி
உடனே வருவேன் உனையே தொடுவேன்
Wherever the anklet of your love chimes
There my heartbeat will echo, indeed it will echo
Oh pure honey... oh river... oh gentle shower of flowers
Throwing dust into the eyes of the world
I will come immediately and touch you
ஹோ ஓ ஓ ஹோ ஓஒ ஓஒ ஹோ ஓஒ....
என் நிலா என் இசபெல்லா

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song is a passionate romantic declaration where the lover addresses his beloved as 'Isabella' and compares her beauty to the radiant July moon, a finely carved statue, and precious rising gold. He expresses his unstoppable urge to reach her, asserting that just as no one can stop the wind or rain, no guard or obstacle can keep him away from her love. He vows to bypass all societal watchfulness to be by her side.
