Karu karu vizhigalil
Oru gandham thondruthae
Siru siru udhadugal
Enai kavvi sendrathae
Idhayathin thudipilae
Oru isaithaan ketkuthae
Oh pennae pennae
Nee yaaro….
Hmm..mm….mm..mm..

Hmm ..mm…mmm…mmm…
Mmm…mmm….
In your deep dark eyes,
A magnetic pull appears.
Your delicate lips
Have captured and swept me away.
In the beat of my heart,
A sweet melody is heard.
Oh girl, dear girl,
Who are you?...
Hmm.. mm... mm.. mm..
Mmm... mmm...
Hmm.. mm... mmm... mmm...
