Kasthoori maan pola thullivarum undhan
Kannathai allikolla anumadhi kodu
Kaadhoram loolakum mookuthi bullakum
Kanathan vandhene kadhal kudu
Veda kozhi pol un thegam
Vidamatten naan
Kannale mayakadhe kamakari
Un kadaikann parvai podhum
En uyirin maayakari
Kozhi koovum neram
Ohoo neeyum naanum
Kaadu pookum neram
Vilaiyadum dhegam

Palamurai paarthal koda
Bodai theradha un moogam
Kozhi koovum neram
Ohoo neum nanum
Kaadu pookum neram vilaiyadum nam thegam

Leaping along like a musk deer,
give me permission to cup your cheeks.
Your dangling earring and your nose ring,
I came just to look at them, give me your love.
Your body is like a wild jungle fowl,
and I will not let you go.
Do not enchant me with your eyes, you temptress!
Just a glance from the corner of your eyes is enough,
you enchantress of my soul!
At the hour the rooster crows,
oho, you and me,
at the time the forest blooms,
our bodies will play.
Give it to me once more,
this journey of our love.
Even if I look at you many times,
the intoxication of your face never ends.
At the hour the rooster crows,
oho, you and me,
As the forest blooms, our bodies will play.
Give it to me once more,
this journey of our love.
Even if I look at you many times,
the intoxication of your face never ends.
At the hour the rooster crows,
oho, you and me,
As the forest blooms, our bodies will play.
Give it to me once more,
this journey of our love.
Even if I look at you many times,
the intoxication of your face never ends.
Can even gold ever equal you?
Can the drifting clouds touch you?
My heart searches for you every day,
from now on, let us swing together in joy.
Leaping along like a musk deer,
give me permission to cup your cheeks.
Your dangling earring and your nose ring,
I came just to look at them, give me your love.
Your body is like a wild jungle fowl,
and I will not let you go.
Do not enchant me with your eyes, you temptress!
Just a glance from the corner of your eyes is enough,
you enchantress of my soul!
