Kaatrin viral pidithu nadanthu vaa
Kanmani kanmani
Violin osai kudithu paadi vaa
Ponmani ponmani
Kaadhali enbaval kattil alla
Kai thatti sirikkum bommai alla
Nenjukkul varuvaal mella mella
Uyire ival endru solla solla
Nee yaaro evalo alla
Naan ezhettu varigalil solla
Nee alaiyo mazhaiyo alla

Araikkul peiyum mazhai pola
Enakkul vandhaai mun naalil
Yaaro ezhudhi micham vaitha
Kavithai vari pol paarkindraai
Mudhalil kodutha mutham pola

Walk along, holding the hand of the wind,
My darling, my dearest,
Drink in the sound of the violin and come singing,
My precious one, my sweetheart,
A lover is not just a bed,
Nor a doll that claps and laughs,
She enters the heart so gently,
As it whispers over and over, "She is my life,"
You are not just some stranger,
For me to describe in seven or eight lines,
You are neither a wave nor the rain,
For me to gather with a thousand fingers,
I saw yesterday in your eyes,
I was born anew in your heart,
Like rain falling inside a room,
You entered into me that day,
Written and left behind by someone,
You look at me like a line of poetry,
Like that very first kiss,
You took my life away,
You are not just some stranger,
For me to describe in seven or eight lines,
You are neither a wave nor the rain,
For me to gather with a thousand fingers,
Male
