காதலே தினம் தினம்
நீயும் எங்கே தேடினேன்
காதலே ஒரு தரம்
முகம் காட்டு வாழ்கிறேன்
Oh love, every single day,
Where were you? I searched for you.
Oh love, just once,
Show your face; I am living for that.
ஓயாதே ஓயாதே
எந்தன் கால்கள் தேடுமே
போதாதே போதாதே
உந்தன் காதல் நாளுமே
Unceasingly, unceasingly,
My eyes keep searching for you.
Never enough, never enough,
Is your love, every passing day.
நிஜம் எங்கே அறியாமலே
நினைவெல்லாம் கணம் ஆகுதே
சிறு விரல் கோர்த்து
பழகிய நாட்கள் நினைவினில் ஓடுதே
Without knowing where the truth lies,
All memories turn heavy inside.
Holding little fingers together,
The days we spent run through my memories.
மறுபடி நீயும் உடன் வர வேண்டும்
இதயமும் ஏங்குதே
You must come back with me once again,
My heart yearns deeply.
கண்ணீரிலே கரைந்தேனடி
கரை ஏற்றிடு என்னையே
மடிந்தாளுமே மறக்காதடி
என் செந்தாழ் இனியே
I dissolved in tears, my dear girl,
Rescue me and bring me to the shore.
Even if I perish, I will never forget you,
Oh my sweet screw-pine blossom.
.......................
என் கண்ணே என் பொன்னே
என் கண்ணே என் பொன்னே
கண்ணு நீ வந்தா
நான் தன்னே நானேனா
My darling, my precious treasure,
My darling, my precious treasure,
My dear, if you come,
Will I remain my true self?
என் கண்ணே என் பொன்னே
என் கண்ணே என் பொன்னே
கண்ணு நீ வந்தா
நான் தன்னே நானேனா
My darling, my precious treasure,
My darling, my precious treasure,
My dear, if you come,
Will I remain my true self?
ஏ....ஹே....ஏ....
என் கண்ணே
ஏ....ஹே....ஏ....
என் பொன்னே
ஏ....ஹே....ஏ....
Yeah... hae... yeah...
Female: My darling
Male: Yeah... hae... yeah...
Female: My precious treasure

நியாயமா நியாமா
காதலின் நினைவுகள் சாபமா
போதுமா போதுமா
கனவினில் வசித்திட கூடுமா
Is this fair? Is this fair?
Are the memories of love a curse?
Is this enough? Is this enough?
Is it possible to live only in dreams?
உனக்கென்ன அலைஞ்ச
உயிர் வர தொலைஞ்ச
உதிரத்தில் கரைஞ்ச
கன்னி மயிலே
Wandering for your sake,
Lost until my life force ebbs away,
Dissolved in my blood,
Oh young peacock,
ஒரு முறை உன்ன நான்
நெருங்கிட துடிச்ச
மடியினில் சறுஞ்ச
உயிர் விடவே
Just once, I...
Ached to get close to you,
Sliding down into your lap,
To give up my life.
கண்ணீரிலே கரைந்தேனடி
கரை ஏற்றிடு என்னையே
மடிந்தாளுமே மறக்காதடி
என் செந்தாழ் இனியே
I dissolved in tears, my dear girl,
Rescue me and bring me to the shore.
Even if I perish, I will never forget you,
Oh my sweet screw-pine blossom.

The protagonist feels completely lost in grief, describing his days spent endlessly searching for his beloved. Memories of their simple moments together weigh heavily on his heart, making him question whether love's sweet memories have turned into a painful curse. He begs her to return and save him from drowning in his tears, promising that even death cannot erase his love for her.
