Until cheeks turn red,
until my cheeks turn red,
go on and give me a kiss!
Hey, give me a kiss!
Until cheeks turn red,
until your cheeks turn red,
I will give you a kiss,
I will give you a kiss!
How many kinds of kisses are there in all?
Will you teach me?
Until the Guinness Book tears apart,
will you shower them on me?
There is no shyness,
there are no rules anymore,
our kiss will touch the heavens!
Taking a white cloud
to cover its eyes,
the sky itself will hide away!
Hey, until cheeks turn red,
until my cheeks turn red,
will you give me a kiss?
Hey, will you give me a kiss?
Hoo ooo ooo oooo oo oo oo oo
Hoo ooo ooo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
When a thousand people
Hoy hoy!
are gathered together in a hall,
Ho ho!
dazzling everyone's eyes in a flash,
the kiss you steal is a lightning kiss!
When the bricks of the wall
Hoy hoy!
shatter into tiny pieces,
Ho ho!
and the echo resounds,
the kiss planted on the lips
is a booming DTS sound kiss!
Without hurting the lower lip,
if given gently and softly,
without hurting the lower lip,
if given gently and softly,
it is a non-violent kiss!
Ah, if sweet sugary lips
are squeezed and drained dry,
ah, if sweet sugary lips
are squeezed and drained dry,
it is a violent kiss!
When lips intertwine and drink each other in,
that first kiss transforms the very soul!
Until cheeks turn red,
until my cheeks turn red,
go on and give me a kiss!
Hey, give me a kiss!
To give the best kiss,
to give a sweet lip kiss,
to give the best kiss,
to give a sweet lip kiss,
to give the best kiss,
to give a sweet lip kiss,
to give the best kiss,
to give a sweet lip kiss,
to give the best kiss,
to give a sweet lip kiss,
to give, give, give!
Deep inside the heart,
Hoy hoy!
if there is a heavy burden,
Ho ho!
wiping away every worry
with tender lips
is a motherly kiss in love!
Due to long separation,
Hoy hoy!
having withered and parched,
Ho ho!
when reuniting, devouring the lips
is a wild ghost kiss in love!
Over both the eyes,
if two lips step softly,
over both the eyes,
if lips step softly,
it is a poetic kiss!
Over the two lotus blooms,
if two lips spread across,
over the two lotus blooms,
if two lips spread across,
it is a kiss of Kama (god of love)!
When we wake up
and when we bathe,
it must go on as an unbroken chain of kisses!
Until cheeks turn red,
until my cheeks turn red,
go on and give me a kiss!
Hey, give me a kiss!
Until cheeks turn red,
until your cheeks turn red,
I will give you a kiss,
I will give you a kiss!
How many kinds of kisses are there in all?
Will you teach me?
Until the Guinness Book tears apart,
will you shower them on me?

Beyond the translation
Overall song meaning
The song 'Kannam Sivakka' (also known as 'Mutham Moththam') from the 2003 film 'Aasai Aasaiyai' is a playful, romantic duet centered entirely around the concept and types of kisses. The lead couple lightheartedly explores different categories of kisses—ranging from a quick stealthy kiss ('lightning kiss') to a loud passionate one ('DTS kiss'), a comforting tender kiss ('motherly kiss'), an intense reunion kiss ('demonic kiss'), a poetic kiss on the eyes, and an erotic kiss.
