காதல் அடைமழை காலம்
பாதங்கள் பறவைகள் ஆகும்
வாழ்வின் வழி துணை என்று
நெஞ்சம் உன்னைக் கண்டு சாய்கிறதே
Love is a season of heavy downpours
Feet turn into light birds
Believing you are my life's companion
My heart leans upon seeing you
காக்க வைக்கும் உனை
உனை ரசித்திருப்பேன்
லட்சம் பல வலிகளை நீ கொடுத்தாய்
இன்னும் இன்னும் வேண்டும்
என அடம் பிடிப்பேன்
Though you make me wait
I will keep admiring you
You broke away a hundred thousand pains
Wanting more and more
I will stubbornly demand
உன் தோளில் சாயும்
அந்த நொடி வலி மறக்கிறதே
என் வாழ்வின் தூரம் உன்
வீட்டில் வந்து முடிகிறதே
உன்னைப் பார்த்து நிற்கும் நிமிஷங்களில்
வாழ்வின் அர்த்தங்களும் புரிகிறதே...உயிரே
Leaning on your shoulder
That moment's pain is forgotten
The journey distance of my life
Comes to an end at your home
In the minutes spent looking at you
The meanings of life are understood... my soul
நீளும் நீண்ட நெடு வழியில்
காலை கூச்சலிடும் பனியில்
ஏதோ பேசி கொண்டு நடப்போம்
ஏதோ பேசியதை மறந்திருப்போம்
On the long, stretching endless road
In the morning dew shouting with chill
We shall walk talking about random things
We will forget whatever we talked about
மெல்ல மெல்ல கரைவது பிடிக்கிறதே
உனை கண்டு உதிர்வது இனிக்கிறதே
தொன்றுதொட்ட வலிகளும் புதைகிறதே
I love dissolving slowly and steadily
Shedding myself upon seeing you feels sweet
Age-old persistent pains get buried
ஹே உன் கூந்தல் நீளம்
என் இரவிலும் அலைகிறதே
நீ பார்க்கும் பார்வை
என் பொறுமையை கேட்கிறதே
கனவில் பேசி வந்த வார்த்தைகளை
நேரில் பேச மனம் துடிக்கிறதே..ஆஹாஹ்..
Hey, the length of your long tresses
Waves even across my night
The gaze you cast upon me
Tests the limits of my patience
The words spoken in my dreams
My heart yearns to speak in person... ah
காதல் அடைமழை காலம்
பாதங்கள் பறவைகள் ஆகும்
வாழ்வின் வழி துணை என்று
நெஞ்சம் உன்னைக் கண்டு சாய்கிறதே
Love is a season of heavy downpours
Feet turn into light birds
Believing you are my life's companion
My heart leans upon seeing you
நமை நமை தினம் ரசிக்க விடியல் நேரம்
தண்டனைகள் தரும் உனது இனிய கோலம்
கட்டுக் கட்டாய் கதைகள்
உரைக்க விரையும் நேரம்
மௌனம் புரிவேனே ஓஹோ...
Dawn is the time to admire ourselves daily
Your sweet presence grants delightful punishments
Bundles and bundles of stories
When time rushes to recount them
I shall maintain silence, oho
அனுதினம் புது
உலகில் நடந்து போவோம்
மேகம் போலே
கடல்கரையில் மணல் வெளியில்
தொலைந்து போவோம்
சுவடைப் போலே
Every single day in a new
World, we shall walk together
Female: Like a floating cloud
Male: On the seashore, in the sandy expanse
We shall get lost
Female: Like footsteps
தனி மரம் ஒன்றின்
அடியில் இலைகள் போலே
தனித்து கிடப்போம் வா நீ வா
Beneath a single solitary tree
Like fallen leaves at its base
We will lie together in solitude, come, oh come
நீ தேடும் நேரம் என்
கள்ளத்தனம் வெடிக்கிறதே
என் காதல் தேடல் தம்
எல்லைகளை மறக்கிறதே
When you search for me, my
Playful mischief bursts forth
My quest for love forgets
Its own limits and boundaries
காதல் அடைமழை காலம்
பாதங்கள் பறவைகள் ஆகும்
வாழ்வின் வழி துணை என்று
நெஞ்சம் உன்னைக் கண்டு சாய்கிறதே
