[Humming]
கையோடு கையை கோர்த்தே
எந்தன் காலோடு றெக்கை தைய்த்தாய்
கண்ணோடு கண்ணை வைத்தே
எந்தன் கன்னத்தில் வண்ணம் தந்தாய்
Holding hand in hand,
You stitched wings onto my feet.
Placing eye to eye,
You gave color to my cheeks.
விழியின் மையால் விதியை நீயும்
திருத்தம் தீட்டிக் காட்டினாய்
விரும்பும் போதே விடியல் என்று
தீயில் தீர்த்தம் ஊற்றினாய்
With the eyeliner of your eyes, you
Showed a correction written in destiny.
Saying dawn arrives whenever desired,
You poured holy water over the fire.
கனவில் நானும் காண்கின்ற
காட்சிகள் எல்லாமே
கண்முன்னே நீ காட்டினாய்
எதிரினில் நீயும் வந்தாலே
பார்வை தந்தாலே
நெஞ்சுக்குள் போர் மூட்டினாய்
All the sights that I
Used to see in my dreams,
You brought to life right before my eyes.
When you came right in front of me,
And gave me a single glance,
You ignited a battle within my heart.
முனகல் ....
[Humming]
தோற்காமல் நான் தூரம் செல்ல
தோளோடு மாலை தந்தாய்
தோழி நீயும் துணைவி என
தோற்றத்தில் என்னை வென்றாய்
For me to travel far without losing,
You placed a garland upon my shoulders.
As a friend turned life partner,
You won me over with your presence.
கேளாமலே பார்க்காமலே
நான் சொல்லும் தூரம் வந்தாய்
மீளாமலே தாளமலே
உன் காதல் ஆழம் தந்தாய்
Without asking, without looking,
You came as far as I asked.
Incurably and unbearably,
You bestowed the true depth of your love.
தேடாமல் தென்பட்ட பொக்கிசம் நீ
கூடாமல் ஓர் நாளும் போகாதினி
மூடாமல் முற்பட்ட முற்போக்கி நீ
வாடாமல் வாழ்ந்திடுனி…
You are a treasure found without searching.
Not a day shall pass now without us being together.
You are progressive, striving forward without hiding.
May you live forever without fading...
விழியின் மையால் விதியை நீயும்
திருத்தம் தீட்டிக் காட்டினாய்
விரும்பும் போதே விடியல் என்று
தீயில் தீர்த்தம் ஊற்றினாய்
With the eyeliner of your eyes, you
Showed a correction written in destiny.
Saying dawn arrives whenever desired,
You poured holy water over the fire.
கனவில் நானும் காண்கின்ற
காட்சிகள் எல்லாமே
கண்முன்னே நீ காட்டினாய்
எதிரினில் நீயும் வந்தாளே
பார்வை தந்தாலே
நெஞ்சுக்குள் போர் மூட்டினாய்
All the sights that I
Used to see in my dreams,
You brought to life right before my eyes.
When you came right in front of me,
And gave me a single glance,
You ignited a battle within my heart.
