எனக்குள்ள புதிதாக
புது காதல் நீ தந்த

சுகம்தானே நீ சொன்னா
Newly inside me
You gave a fresh love..
Even the ache that burdens the heart
Is a bliss, you told me
சொக்காத சொக்காத
யார் பாத்தும் சிக்காத
என் நெஞ்சில் ஏன் வந்து
என்னோட திக்கான
Without enchanting me completely
Remaining caught by no one else
Why did you enter my heart
And become my destination?
அர பார்வை நீ பாத்து
அடி நெஞ்ச கொல்லாத
நிழல்கூட நடக்கின்ற
சுகம் கூட நீ தந்த
Looking at me with a half-glance
Oh girl, do not kill my heart
Even the joy of walking alongside a shadow
You gave that happiness to me

ஓ....மௌனம் பேசும்
மொழிகூட அழகடி
ஆயுள் நீல அது போதும் வருடி
உந்தன் உதட்டின் ஓரங்கள் மறைக்கும்
புது மொழி அதை உடைத்தெறி
Oh… even the language spoken by silence
Is so beautiful, my dear
Caress me, for that is enough to lengthen my lifetime
Whatever the corners of your lips conceal
Break through that mystery and speak a new language
வெள்ளை பூவே
நீ எந்தன் நிலவடி
எந்தன் வானை மறைகின்ற அழகி
உந்தன் உயிரை என் சுவாசம்
தொடுதேனா கூறடி வந்து கூறடி
Oh white flower
You are my moon, my dear
Oh beauty who fills and hides my entire sky
That my breath touches your soul
Come and tell me that, come tell me
நிலவே....மலரே....
