கண்ணுக்குள்ள காதல் வச்சு
என்ன கொல்ல பாத்தவனே
காட்டு மல்லி பூவை போல
வாசம் வீசி போனவனே
Holding love within your eyes
The one who tried to kill me with affection
Like a wild jasmine flower
The one who passed by spreading fragrance
மீண்டும் ஜென்மம் வேண்டும்
பெண்ணே உயிரோடு
உன் கூடவே இருக்கனும் இனி என்றுமே
நீ சிரிச்சா உலகில் பூவெல்லாம் பூக்குதே
I wish for another birth
Oh girl, while still being alive
Female: I want to stay right beside you forever from now on
When you smile, all the flowers bloom in the world
கண்ணுக்குள்ள காதல் வச்சு
என்ன கொல்ல பாத்தவளே
காட்டு மல்லி பூவை போல
வாசம் வீசி போனவளே
Holding love within her eyes
The woman who tried to kill me with affection
Like a wild jasmine flower
The woman who passed by spreading fragrance
அங்கும் இங்கும்தான் பாதைகள் உண்டு
எங்கும் போகாமல் நானும்தான் இங்கே
There are paths leading here and there
Without going anywhere, I stay right here
அவள் எழுதும் கவிதைகளே
வரம் கொடுக்கும் நான் வடிப்பேன்
ஒரே ஒரு பார்வை தந்தால் என்னைத் தருவேன்
ஒரே ஒரு வார்த்தை சொன்னால்
என்னை நினைப்பேன்
The poems written by her
Will bestow blessings as I sculpt them
If you give me just one glance, I will surrender myself
If you say just one word, I will remember myself
என்னாலும் உன் பொன் வானம்
நான் என்று சொல்வேனே
Forever your golden sky
I will claim that I am the one
கண்ணுக்குள்ள காதல் வச்சு
என்ன கொல்ல பாத்தவனே
காட்டு மல்லி பூவை போல
வாசம் வீசி போனவனே
Holding love within your eyes
The one who tried to kill me with affection
Like a wild jasmine flower
The one who passed by spreading fragrance
காலங்கள் போகும் காட்சிகள் மாறும்
சொந்தம் என்றாலே நீ மட்டும் ஆகும்
அகிலம் எங்கும் கதைகள் உண்டு
கதைகளுள் நான் கவிதைகளோ
Times will pass and sights will change
When it comes to true connection, you alone remain
Female: There are stories across the entire universe
Am I a poem within those stories?
மார்கழி பனித்தூளி வரும் நேரமே
தென்றல் தேரில் வருவாள் நமக்காகவே
உயிர் பிரிந்தாள் உன்னை விட்டு
நானும் போக மாட்டேனே
When the dew drops of the month of Margazhi arrive
She will arrive on a chariot of gentle breeze for us
Female: Even if my soul leaves my body, away from you
I will never depart from you
கண்ணுக்குள்ள காதல் வச்சு
என்ன கொல்ல பாத்தவனே
காட்டு மல்லி பூவை போல
வாசம் வீசி போனவனே
Holding love within your eyes
The one who tried to kill me with affection
Like a wild jasmine flower
The one who passed by spreading fragrance
மீண்டும் ஜென்மம் வேண்டும்
பெண்ணே உயிரோடு
உன் கூடவே இருக்கனும் இனி என்றுமே
நீ சிரிச்சா உலகில் பூவெல்லாம் பூக்குதே
I wish for another birth
Oh girl, while still being alive
Female: I want to stay right beside you forever from now on
When you smile, all the flowers bloom in the world
கண்ணுக்குள்ள காதல் வச்சு
என்ன கொல்ல பாத்தவளே
காட்டு மல்லி பூவை போல
வாசம் வீசி போனவளே
Holding love within her eyes
The woman who tried to kill me with affection
