காதலே நீ என்னோடு
கோபம் கொள்ளாதே
காலம் எல்லாம்
உன்னை நான் தேட செய்யாதே
Oh Love, you
Do not be angry with me
All through time
Do not make me search for you
நான் ஒரு சேவகன்
காதலின் காதலன்
யாரிடம் நான் உன்னை
தேடுவேன் காதலே
I am a servant
A lover of love
From whom shall I
Search for you, oh love?
காதலே நீ என்னோடு
கோபம் கொள்ளாதே
காலம் எல்லாம்
உன்னை நான் தேட செய்யாதே
Oh Love, you
Do not be angry with me
All through time
Do not make me search for you
தூங்கும் போதும் யோசிப்பேன்
தூங்காது உனை நான் நேசிப்பேன்
உண்ணும் போது உன்னையே
உண்ணவே நான் யாசிப்பேன்
Even while sleeping, I ponder
Staying awake, I love you
While eating, only you
I beg for you as my food
போகும் இடமெல்லாம்
உந்தன் கைகளை பிடித்தபடியே
நான் நடக்கிறேன்
என்ன கோபமோ கண்ணை கட்டி நீ
உன்னை தேடவே சொல்கிறாய்
Wherever I go
Your hands
Holding them, I walk
What anger is this, blindfolding me
You tell me to search for you
காதலே நான் ஒரு
காதலின் தூதுவன்
நீ எனை காதலி
காதலே வாழுவாய்
Oh love, I am a
Messenger of love
You love me
Live as my love
காதலே நீ என்னோடு
கோபம் கொள்ளாதே
காலம் எல்லாம்
உன்னை நான் தேட செய்யாதே
Oh Love, you
Do not be angry with me
All through time
Do not make me search for you
காதலே உன் வாசலில்
மொழிகள் யாவும் மௌனமே
பேசுகின்ற வார்த்தையோ
நாணத்தாலே விலகுமே
Oh love, at your doorstep
All languages fall silent
The spoken words
Retreat due to shyness
யாருமில்லை என்ற போதிலும்
வரம்பு மீறியதில்லையே
காதலாகினோம் கசிந்து உருகினோம்
கரங்கள் தீண்டியதில்லையே
Even when nobody was around
We never crossed our limits
We fell in love, melted emotionally
Yet our hands never touched
ஆயிரம் காலமாய்
வாழ்கிறாய் காதலே
யாருமே என்னை போலே
காதலன் இல்லையே
For thousands of eras
You live, oh love
No one like me
Is a true lover
காதலே நீ என்னோடு
கோபம் கொள்ளாதே
காலம் எல்லாம்
உன்னை நான் தேட செய்யாதே
Oh Love, you
Do not be angry with me
All through time
Do not make me search for you
நான் ஒரு சேவகன்
காதலின் காதலன்
யாரிடம் நான் உன்னை
தேடுவேன் காதலே
I am a servant
A lover of love
From whom shall I
Search for you, oh love?
காதலே நீ என்னோடு
கோபம் கொள்ளாதே
காலம் எல்லாம்
உன்னை நான் தேட செய்யாதே
