| Male | |
| Kan jadai than kattadhadi | You showed a glance of your eyes, girl |
| Enna minsrama thakkadhadi | It struck me like electricity, girl |
| Un adukku pallaala | Because of your aligned set of teeth |
| Naan alaiyuren thannala | I am wandering around automatically |
| Male | |
| Kanna pinna un sirippila | In your random, sweet smile |
| Kaathu kidanthaen ninappula | I was waiting, lost in your thoughts |
| En usurae neethandi | You are my very life, girl |
| Enna urasi poyendi | Brush past me and go, girl |
| Male | |
| Enna sokka veikkum | The beautiful woman who |
| Sundhariayae | Entrances me |
| Maamaannu solvaaya | Will you call me 'Mamaan'? |
| Enna sutha vittu paakuriyae | You are making me spin around and watching |
| Pennae nee arivaaya | Oh girl, do you know that? |
| Male | |
| Kan jadai than kattdhadi | You showed a glance of your eyes, girl |
| Enna minsrama thakkadhadi | It struck me like electricity, girl |
| Un adukku pallaala | Because of your aligned set of teeth |
| Naan alaiyuren thannala | I am wandering around automatically |
| Male | |
| Panjumittaai kannam katti | Having cotton-candy-like cheeks |
| Vannam theeti poravalae | Oh girl who goes around painted in bright colors |

கண் ஜாடைதான் காட்டாதடி
என்ன மின்சாரமா தாக்காதடி
உன் அடுக்கு பல்லால
நான் அலையுறேன் தன்னால
You showed a glance of your eyes, girl
It struck me like electricity, girl
Because of your aligned set of teeth
I am wandering around automatically
கண்ணா பின்னா ஒ சிரிப்புல
காத்து கெடந்தேன நெனப்புல
என் உசுரே நீதாண்டி
என்ன உரசி போயேண்டி
In your random, sweet smile
I was waiting, lost in your thoughts
You are my very life, girl
Brush past me and go, girl
என்ன சொக்க வைக்கும்
சுந்தரியே…
மாமான்னு சொல்வாயா…?
என்ன சுத்த விட்டு பாக்குறியே…
பெண்ணே நீ அறிவாயா…?
The beautiful woman who
Entrances me
Will you call me 'Mamaan'?
You are making me spin around and watching
Oh girl, do you know that?
கண் ஜாடைதான் காட்டாதடி
என்ன மின்சாரமா தாக்காதடி
உன் அடுக்கு பல்லால
நான் அலையுறேன் தன்னால
You showed a glance of your eyes, girl
It struck me like electricity, girl
Because of your aligned set of teeth
I am wandering around automatically
பஞ்சி முட்டாய் கண்ணம் காட்டி
வண்ணம் தீட்டி போறவேள
பச்சபுள்ள ஏங்குறேன்டி
பச்சக்கிளி நீ பதில் சொல்லி போடி
Having cotton-candy-like cheeks
Oh girl who goes around painted in bright colors
Like an innocent child, I am longing, girl
Oh green parrot, answer me and go
வானு கோழி மூக்கழகி
வயசு பையன வதைக்காத
பருவ பையன் பாசக்காரன்
புடிச்சிருந்தும் விலகிப்போற
Pretty-nosed girl, beautiful like a peahen
Do not torture this young guy
The young man is affectionate
Even though you like him, you walk away
ரெட்ட சடை பின்னிப்போகும்
ரெக்கையில்லா குருவி நீ…
பார்த்ததுமே பச்சை குத்தும்
பார்வைய மாத்தேண்டி…
Braiding double pigtails as you go
You are a wingless bird
That leaves a permanent mark as soon as seen
Change that gaze, girl
கண்ணாலத்தான் கிறுக்கேத்தி
தினம் ஆள கொல்லுறியே
ஏ! பருவ பொண்ணே இனி பார்க்காதடி
நான் பார்வை இல்லாம போய்டுவேன்…
போயிடுவேன் போயிடுவேன்
Driving me crazy with just your eyes
You kill me every day
Hey young girl, don't look at me anymore
Or I will lose my eyesight
I will lose it, I will lose it
சின்ன சின்ன சிணுங்கல் செஞ்சி
சிறை பிடிக்க வந்தவளே…
வெட்கத்துல பாடுறேன்டி
வார்த்த ஒன்னு சொல்லிப்போடி…
Making small playful pouts
Oh girl who came to imprison me
I am singing out of shyness, girl
Say just one word and go
கெண்ட மீனு கழுத்தழகி
கெறங்கடிச்சி நடந்துப்போற
பண்ணு போல உன்ன தின்ன
பட்டாம் பூச்சியாய் பறந்து வாறேன்
With carp-fish beauty and a fine neck
You walk away making me dizzy
To relish you like a sweet bun
I come flying like a butterfly
சொட்ட சொட்ட நனையிறேன்டி
உன் சுண்டி விட்டல சிரிப்பால
செல்லமாக வையாதடி
தமிழ் சொல்லாக மாறிடுவேன்
I am getting drenched drop by drop
By your gentle, flicked smile
Don't scold me affectionately, girl
Or I will turn into a pure Tamil word
செல்ல கிளி உன் பேர சொல்லி
இந்த ஊரையே வாங்கிடுவேன்
உன்ன விட்டா யாருமில்ல
இந்த ஒரே ஒரு ஜென்மத்துல…
ஜென்மத்துல…
Oh sweet parrot, invoking your name
I will buy this entire town for you
There is no one else except you
In this single lifetime
In this lifetime
உனக்கா சமஞ்சேன்டா
உன் உசிருக்குள்ள நுழைஞ்சேன்டா
அட நீதான்டா மெல்ல
வந்தாயே உள்ள
I have made myself ready for you
I have entered into your very soul
Ah, it is you who slowly
Came inside my heart
