காதல் பிறந்தது மோகம் வளர்ந்தது
காமம் உண்டாகுமா
மோகம் பிறந்ததும் வேகம் வளர்ந்ததும்
தேகம் ரெண்டாகுமா
Love was born, desire grew, will lust arise?
When desire is born and speed grows, will the body divide into two?
My beloved, desire for you increases daily
Oh lover, my body melts like wax
காதலி உன்னாசை தினசரி பெருகுதே
காதலா என் மேனி மெழுகென உருகுதே
தினம் உறவு கொண்டாட மனது மன்றாட
பருவம் திண்டாடுதே
My heart pleads to celebrate intimacy every day
Youthfulness struggles in distress
Hey, love was born, desire grew, will lust arise?
When desire is born and speed grows, will the body divide into two?
ஹே காதல் பிறந்தது மோகம் வளர்ந்தது
காமம் உண்டாகுமா
மோகம் பிறந்ததும் வேகம் வளர்ந்ததும்
தேகம் ரெண்டாகுமா
The budding jasmine has not been kissed, will lust arise?
When desire is born and speed grows, will the body divide into two?
In the bed of cotton mattress
What if she comes to teach the arts of ten fingers?
மொட்டுவிட்ட முல்லை முத்தமிட்டதில்லை
வெட்கம் வந்து தள்ளாடுதே
கட்டிக் கொண்டு நீயே கட்டி முத்தம் தந்தால்
விட்டு விட நாளாகுமே
Hey, feeling fearful and hesitant
There is no need to keep anything in reserve
What if you embrace and give abundantly?
If you stand at a distance, trouble will gather
பஞ்சு மெத்தை பள்ளியிலே
பத்து விரல் வித்தைகளை கற்று தர வந்தாலென்ன
ஹே அச்சப்பட்டு அச்சப்பட்டு
மிச்சம் வைக்க தேவையில்லை
அள்ளி அள்ளி தந்தாலென்ன
If time passes, the burden will increase
Times of sipping sweet young drinks
Are they Cupidian arrows/drinks?
Hey, love was born, desire grew, will lust arise?
When desire is born and speed grows, will the body divide into two?
தூரம் நின்றால் தொல்லை சேரும்
நேரமானால் பாரம் ஏறும்
இள மதுர பானங்கள் பருகும் நேரங்கள்
மதன பாணங்களோ....ஓ.....ஒஹ்
The twilight-colored water lily
Asking to serve a feast
Does it come repeatedly and speak?
Even after reaching heaven
ஹே காதல் பிறந்தது மோகம் வளர்ந்தது
காமம் உண்டாகுமா
மோகம் பிறந்ததும் வேகம் வளர்ந்ததும்
தேகம் ரெண்டாகுமா
There is no way to express it
Does shyness come and make the mouth hesitate?
Even after the morning star appears
Saying that you won't leave
அந்தி வண்ண அல்லி
பந்தி வைக்க சொல்லி
வந்து வந்து வாய் பேசுதோ
சொர்க்கம் வரை வந்தும்
சொல்ல வழியில்லை
வெட்கம் வந்து வாய் கூசுதோ
Do not run away in shyness, my dear!
In the heat of a wink
If this creeper sprouts
It cannot bear being held by hand
It is enough if the Ganges flows in
It is enough to lean on your hands
விடிவெள்ளி வந்த பின்னும்
விடவில்லை என்று சொல்லி
வெட்கப்பட்டு ஓடாதம்மா....ஆஹ்
கண்ணடிச்ச வேகத்திலே
கண்ணி விட்டாள் இந்த கொடி
கைப்பிடிக்கு தாங்காதம்மா
Without gathering that beauty
Without experiencing it, youth will not end, my dear
Love was born, desire grew, will lust arise?
When desire is born and speed grows, will the body divide into two?
My beloved, desire for you increases daily
Oh lover, my body melts like wax
கங்கை வந்து பாய்ந்தால் போதும்
கைகள் மேலே சாய்ந்தால் போதும்
அந்த அழகை சேர்க்காமல்
பழகி பார்க்காமல் பருவம் தீராதம்மா
My heart pleads to celebrate intimacy every day
Youthfulness struggles in distress
Hey, love was born, desire grew, will lust arise?
When desire is born and speed grows, will the body divide into two?
காதல் பிறந்தது மோகம் வளர்ந்தது
காமம் உண்டாகுமா
மோகம் பிறந்ததும் வேகம் வளர்ந்ததும்
தேகம் ரெண்டாகுமா
காதலி உன்னாசை தினசரி பெருகுதே
காதலா என் மேனி மெழுகென உருகுதே
தினம் உறவு கொண்டாட மனது மன்றாட
பருவம் திண்டாடுதே
ஹே காதல் பிறந்தது மோகம் வளர்ந்தது
காமம் உண்டாகுமா
மோகம் பிறந்ததும் வேகம் வளர்ந்ததும்
தேகம் ரெண்டாகுமா
