Morning breeze, go with your blessings,
find out and tell us the day we exchange garlands.
Lighting the lamp of love in our eyes again and again,
by the time our thirst is quenched, the rooster will crow.
Morning breeze, go with your blessings,
find out and tell us the day we exchange garlands.
When you walk, you are the Kaveri river; when you smile, you are goddess Sridevi herself.
Female: Is your voice holy Thevaram (sacred Tamil hymns), and your gaze a garland of verse?
Male: If you become a dream, I will lock you inside my eyelids.
Female: If you become my heart, I will steer this chariot of life.
A gentle breeze fans over this youthful chariot,
and the scent of flowers drifts from your braided hair.
Female: Showering poetry in rich Podhigai Tamil (classical Tamil),
is he a kindred soul to poet Bharathi?
Morning breeze,
Female: go with your blessings,
Male: the day we exchange garlands,
Female: find out and tell us.
Lighting the lamp of love in our eyes again and again,
by the time our thirst is quenched, the rooster will crow.
Morning breeze,
Female: go with your blessings,
Male: the day we exchange garlands,
Female: find out and tell us.
The chariot of your lap is a kingdom; resting there feels like a grand festival.
Male: I was overwhelmed as passion surged,
and I grew weak with longing.
Female: Tenderly, one day you will bathe me in a river of honey.
Male: And on the shore of your lips, I will cherish you the next day.
In the twilight sky draped in a crimson sari,
the clouds gather for an evening union.
Male: In the bedchamber of your flower-soft eyes,
is that the festive sound of the wedding pipe?
Morning breeze,
Male: go with your blessings,
Female: the day we exchange garlands,
Male: find out and tell us.
Lighting the lamp of love in our eyes again and again,
by the time our thirst is quenched, the rooster will crow.
Morning breeze,
Male: go with your blessings,
Female: the day we exchange garlands,
Male: find out and tell us.
