என் கல்லூளியே
உன் நெனப்பு தான்
My sculptured art,
Your thoughts alone,
ஆஹா ஹான்
ஹாஹா ஹாஹா
ஹான் ஆஹா ஹான்
ஹாஹா ஹாஹா
ஹான்
Ahaa haan haha haha haan
Ahaa haan haha haha haan
என் கல்லூளியே
உன் நெனப்பு தான் என்
மனசுல உன்னை காணாமலே
ஒரு விரிசல் தோணுதடி
உசுருல
My sculptured art,
Your thoughts are inside my heart,
Without seeing you,
A crack appears in my soul, girl.
என் கல்லூளியே
உன் நெனப்பு தான் என்
மனசுல உன்னை காணாமலே
ஒரு விரிசல் தோணுதடி
உசுருல
My sculptured art,
Your thoughts are inside my heart,
Without seeing you,
A crack appears in my soul, girl.
என் பாட்டுக்கு
இருந்தனே காதல் கொடுத்து
நீ பாடா படுத்துற ஏனோ தாள்
பூட்டி கெடந்த என் கானா
கூட்டுல நொழஞ்சிட்ட நீ
ஏனோ
I was minding my own business,
By giving love,
You cause me to suffer... why?
Which lay padlocked,
Inside my nest of dreams,
You entered... why?
நீ விளக்கேத்துன
உன்ன தீண்டினேன் சிறு
பூச்சியா நானும் ஒரு நொடி
கூட நீ பிரியாமலே உடன்
வர எனக்கு நீ வேணும்
You lit the lamp,
And I reached out to touch you,
Like a little moth... I too.
Without separating,
Even for a single moment,
I need you to walk alongside me.
காத்தா கலக்குற
நெஞ்சில தன்னால ஏதோ
நடக்குது என்னில உன்னால
தான்டா தடைகள கடந்திடும்
உன்னால நீங்காது இருந்திடு
பெண்ணே என்னுள்ள
Like the wind... you stir up my heart on its own,
Something... happens within me because of you,
To cross over... obstacles are overcome because of you,
Without leaving... stay inside me, girl.
நீ விளக்கேத்துன
உன்ன தீண்டினேன் சிறு
பூச்சியா நானும் ஒரு நொடி
கூட நீ பிரியாமலே உடன்
வர எனக்கு நீ வேணும்
I was minding my own business,
By giving love,
You cause me to suffer... why?
Without separating,
Even for a single moment,
I need you to walk alongside me.
காலம் நீள உனதடி
வாழ ஆசைகள் முடிவிலே
மறுபடி ஜென்மம் தொடருமோ
இன்னும் விரும்ப திரும்ப நீ
போதும்
Time stretches at your feet,
Desires to live know no end,
Will another rebirth continue further?
To love you again and again, you are enough.
தாளம் போடும்
இருதயம் நீயும் வேணும்னு
அழுதிடும் உலகிலே இங்கு
உன்னை விடாதிங்கு தொடர
தொடர வரம் வேணும்
The beating heart,
Cries out wanting only you,
In this world, more than anything here,
I need a blessing for this to keep continuing.
தரையில் நிக்காம
அடம் பிடிக்கிறேன் அவளே
போதும்னு வெறி பிடிக்கிறேன்
அருகில் நான் இங்க உயிரில்
சேர்த் அங்க
உனக்குள் கலங்குறேன்
நான் இங்க
Refusing to stand on the ground, I act stubbornly,
Obsessed with the thought that she alone is enough,
I am near here, joining with life there,
Female: I dissolve within you right here,
காத்தா கலக்குற
நெஞ்சில தன்னால ஏதோ
நடக்குது என்னில உன்னால
தான்டா தடைகள கடந்திடும்
உன்னால நீங்காது இருந்திடு
பெண்ணே என்னுள்ள
Like the wind... you stir up my heart on its own,
Something... happens within me because of you,
To cross over... obstacles are overcome because of you,
Without leaving... stay inside me, girl.
