| Nee yaaro yaaro | Who are you, who are you? |
| Nee yaaro | Who are you? |
| Nindraai yaadhumaai | You stood as everything to me. |

நீ யாரோ யாரோ
நீ யாரோ நின்றாய் யாதுமாய்
நீளாதோ இந்நாள் தூரமாய்
Who are you, who are you?
Who are you?
You stood as everything to me.
Won't this day stretch far into time?
போகாத சாலை
பொன் வேளை வான்
கானா வானிலை நேராதா
ஏதோ நேரலை
An untravelled road,
A golden hour,
A sky-unseen weather,
An unhappened shadow-like illusion.
அண்மையில் நீ
பார்த்து நிற்கின்ற நேரம்
மென்மையாய் கை கோர்த்து
போகவே மெதுவாய் மேல்
நாட்டு மேகம் எங்கும் நகரா
நாள் வேண்டுமே வேண்டுமே
When you stand looking at me closely,
To walk gently holding hands,
As Western clouds drift slowly everywhere,
I want a day that stays still, I want it!
ஆகாயம் தாண்டியும்
கூட்டி போ கூடவே ஆள்
இல்லா தீவுகள் கூட்டி போ
கூடவே காணாத வேறிடம்
கூட்டி போ கூடவே வாழாத
ஓரிடம் கூட்டி போ கூடவே
ஏ ஏ ஏ ஏ
Take me along beyond the skies,
Take me along to uninhabited islands,
Take me along to unseen places,
Take me along to places never lived in before.
Ae..ae….ae…ae…..
நிழாத சூழல் நிகர்
இல்லாத முதல் காட்சியே
அழகே நீ தந்தாய் என்
வாழ்வையே
A shadowless environment,
An incomparable first sight,
Oh beauty, you gave me,
My very life itself.
ஒளி பாயும் காலம்
குளிர் ஏதேதோ ஆசை
கூட்டுதே அடைந்தேனே
உன்னை அடையாளமே
A time where light surges,
A cool chillness amplifies various desires,
I attained you,
Oh my identity!
பாதாதி கேசம்
தோன்றாத மாற்றமே
பாராத தேசம் வாராத
வாசமே
From head to toe,
An unmanifested transformation,
An unseen country,
An unencountered fragrance.
ஆகாயம் தாண்டியும்
கூட்டி போ கூடவே ஆள்
இல்லா தீவுகள் கூட்டி போ
கூடவே காணாத வேறிடம்
கூட்டி போ கூடவே வாழாத
ஓரிடம் கூட்டி போ கூடவே
ஏ ஏ ஏ ஏ
Take me along beyond the skies,
Take me along to uninhabited islands,
Take me along to unseen places,
Take me along to places never lived in before.
Ae..ae….ae…ae…..

உன்னுடன் நான்
சேர்ந்து போகின்ற போது
உண்மையில் தோள் சாய
தோன்றுதே உணர்வில் நீ
பூத்து நிற்கின்ற போது
உணரா ஒரு வாசமே
வாசமே ஹே.....................
When I travel together with you,
In truth, I feel like leaning on your shoulder,
When you bloom within my feelings,
It is an unexperienced fragrance, a fragrance!
Heyyy…ey……eyyyyy…….

Pogatha saalai
An untravelled road,
Pon velai
A golden hour,

An unhappened shadow-like illusion.
Anmaiyil nee parthu nirkindra neram
When you stand looking at me closely,
Menmaiyaai kai korthu pogavae
To walk gently holding hands,
Medhuvaai melnaattu megam yengum
As Western clouds drift slowly everywhere,
Nagaraa naal vendumae vendumae
I want a day that stays still, I want it!

Take me along beyond the skies,
Aalillaa theevugal koottippo koodavae

Take me along to unseen places,
Vaazhaadha oridam koottippo koodavae
Take me along to places never lived in before.
