கஸ்தூரி மான் போல துள்ளிவரும்
உந்தன் கண்ணத்தை அள்ளிக்கொள்ள அனுமதி கொடு
காதோரம் லோலாக்கும் மூக்குத்தி புல்லாக்கும்
காணத்தான் வந்தேனே காதல் கொடு
Like a musk deer bouncing dynamically, your
Cheeks I wish to scoop up, give me permission
Ear hanging ornament, nose ring, and septum ring
I came to see them, give me love
வெட கோழி போல் உன் தேகம்
விடமாட்டேன் நான்
கண்ணாலே மயக்காதே காமக்காரி
உன் கடைக்கண் பார்வை போதும்
என் மாயக்காரி
Like a wild fowl, your body
I will not let go
Don't entrance me with your eyes, passionate woman
A glance from the corner of your eye is enough
Enchantress of my life

When the rooster crows
Ohoo, you and I

Bodies play
கோழி கூவும் நேரம்
ஓகோ நீயும் நானும்
காடு பூக்கும் நேரம்
விளையாடும் தேகம்
At least once, or give me another time
Our love journey
Even if viewed many times
The intoxication of your face never fades
ஒருமுறையெனும் மறுமுறை கூடும்
நம் காதல் பயணம்
பலமுறை பார்த்தல் கூட
போதை தீராத உன் மூகம்

நம் காதல் பயணம்
பலமுறை பார்த்தல் கூட
போதை தீராத உன் மூகம்
Can gold ever match you?
Will the running clouds search for you?
The heart searches for you every day
Now we shall sway like a swing together
உனக்கு தங்கம் ஈடாகுமோ..
ஓடும் மேகம் உனை தேடுமோ
மனம் தேடும் உனை நாளும்
இனி நாம் ஊஞ்சலாடுவோம்..
