கண்ண கண்ண காட்டுனா
என்ன என்ன வாட்டுனா
கண்ணுக்குள்ள தாங்குனா
என்ன மொத்தம் மாத்துனா
You blindfolded my eyes
You tormented me endlessly
You cherished me in your eyes
You transformed me completely
தள்ளி தள்ளி ஓடுனா
தன்னந்தனி ஆக்குனா
என்னன்னவோ பேசுனா
நெஞ்ச வெட்டி வீசுனா
You ran far away from me
You made me completely solitary
You spoke all kinds of random things
You slashed my heart and threw it away
தனியா தவிச்சேன்
உன் வலியால் நான் தொலைஞ்சேன்
அடியே துடிச்சேன்
உன்ன நெனச்சே நான் உடைஞ்சேன்
I suffered in loneliness
I lost myself in the pain you gave me
Oh my love, I writhed in agony
Thinking of you, I shattered into pieces
என் கண்ணு முன்ன
நான் கண்ட கனா
அது காணா போச்சு ஏனடி
நீ என்ன பண்ண
என் நெஞ்ச கொன்ன
நா இப்பவர உன்ன
நெனச்சி வாடுறேன்
In front of my eyes
The dream that I saw
Why did it disappear into thin air, my girl?
What did you do to me?
You murdered my heart
Until this very moment, about you
I keep thinking and wilting away
கண்ண கண்ண காட்டுனா
என்ன என்ன வாட்டுனா
கண்ணுக்குள்ள தாங்குனா
என்ன மொத்தம் மாத்துனா
You blindfolded my eyes
You tormented me endlessly
You cherished me in your eyes
You transformed me completely
தள்ளி தள்ளி ஓடுனா

உன்ன உசிரா நெனச்சேன் மனசுல
அது உனக்கு புரியலயே
Ha..aa..haa…aa…
Haa…aa..haa…aaaa…haaa…
என் தோளில் சாஞ்சி சொன்ன சொல்ல
நான் தேடிப் பார்த்தேன் இப்ப இல்ல
நான் தனியா நின்னு புலம்புறேன்
அது உனக்கு கேக்கலியே
You came into my eyes on your own
Now that you are gone, I am worth nothing
I held you as my soul in my heart
Didn't you understand that at all?
முன்ன பின்ன அழுததில்ல
என்ன பண்ண தெரியவில்ல
உன்னாலதான் தள்ளாடுறேன்
கொஞ்சம் பேசடி
The promises you made leaning on my shoulder
I searched for them, but they are gone now
I stand alone and lament
Can't you hear my voice?
அன்ப தந்த வானவில்ல
இப்ப இங்க காணவில்ல
கண்ணீருல கண்மூடுறேன்
தூக்கம் ஏனடி
I have never cried like this before
I don't know what to do anymore
I am stumbling only because of you
Talk to me just a little, my girl
கெஞ்சி நா கேக்குறன்
பாவம் பாரடி…
The rainbow of love you showed me
Is nowhere to be found now
I close my eyes with tears
Where did my sleep vanish, my girl?
I am begging you, please show some mercy
கண்ண கண்ண காட்டுனா
என்ன என்ன வாட்டுனா
கண்ணுக்குள்ள தாங்குனா
