ஏன்டா நானும்
உன்ன பார்த்தேன்
காதலுல விழுந்தேன்
இவன் வேணுமான்னு
நூறு தடவ
என்னை நான் கேட்டேன்
நீ விட மாட்ட
Why did I
Look at you
And fall in love?
Do I really need him?
A hundred times
I asked myself
You won't let go
நானும் உன்ன பாக்க
கெளம்பினா
என் ஒவ்வொரு டிரெசும்
உன்னை பார்க்க துடிக்குதே
நீ எங்கேனு நான் தேடினா
என் தலைமுடி கூட சேர்ந்து தேடுதே
And when I get ready
To go see you
Every dress of mine
Yearns to see you
When I search where you are
Even my hair joins in to search
நான் இல்லாமல்
நீ இருப்பியான்னு
உன்னை கேட்க மாட்டேன்
அப்படி நீ என்னை கேட்க
அந்த சொல்ல நான் தங்கமாட்டேன்
Without me
Can you exist?
I will not ask you that
If you asked me that
I wouldn't be able to bear those words
ஹேய் பெண்ணே உன்னால்
நான் காதல் செய்தேன் தன்னால்
எல்லாம் உந்தன் கண்ணால்
