Ooohhhhh….
Love speaks without saying a single word,
Dying kills me without taking my life.
Something overwhelms my struggling heart,
Something tastes sweet for no reason at all.
Like the Mona Lisa's smile,
it torments me with such cruelty.
Every day, I burn in a bath of fire inside.
Is being a man such a great curse?
Spare me this brutal cruelty!
If you imprison me with your smile,
why give me a life sentence?
Oh girl, enough of this love's
raging storm!
I have become like Chennai in the rains.
Oh my sweet Tamil, if I were to live
without thinking of you,
oh nectar, it gives me the pain
of life leaving my body.
Is this really me? Is it truly me?
Why is this happening? Is it pure honey?
How did I end up like this?
Why was I like that back then, girl?
No, this is not just lust,
it is the torment of love!
What else can I say?
I am just a child of pain!
Consuming me like a raging fire,
oh fate!
Becoming a disease that kills me,
is this a conspiracy?
Are you poison... hmm?
Are you sweet nectar... hmm?
Turning into both poison and nectar,
splitting my heart in two,
she tore it all into pieces!
Like sudden rain and blazing heat,
breaking my heart into pieces,
she shatters it and walks away.
Oh girl... hey girl,
if I were to live without thinking of you...
Oh girl...
if I were to live without thinking of you...
Ohhhh...

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song explores the overwhelming and paradoxical emotions of a man consumed by intense love. He feels trapped in an agonizing yet sweet obsession, describing love as both a life-giving nectar and a tormenting poison. He feels imprisoned by his beloved's enigmatic smile and compares his chaotic, flooded emotional state to the city of Chennai during a severe rainstorm.
