Kannala kadhai pesa neeyum
Kai koruthu nada poda naanum
Verenna verenna venum
Ne mattum ne mattum podhum
Thaangadha bhaaram

Enaithaangum thoonaai nee dhaandi
Yaar vandha podhum.. yaar pona podhum
Ne mattum ena vittu neengathadi
{Enakennu oru vaanam
Enakennu oru megam

Male : {Athaadi adhu dhanae neeyum} (2)
With you speaking stories with your eyes,
And me walking hand in hand with you,
What else, what else do I need?
Just you, only you are enough.
An unbearable burden,
Even when I carry it,
You stand as the pillar holding me up.
Whoever comes... whoever goes...
You alone never leave my side.
A sky of my own,
A cloud of my own,
Rain is pouring down, oh my,
And that is none other than you.
Oh my, that is none other than you.
Because you came,
Even this turns to dust,
Only because of you, my heart feels light.
If this life of mine
Were told as a story,
There is not a single page without your name.
To melt with love for me,
To playfully twist my ear,
Like the moon along my path,
I need you all along the way.
Even when I became an untamable fire,
You were the one who lit me gently like a lamp's wick.
Oh my, that is none other than you.
With you speaking stories with your eyes,
And me walking hand in hand with you,
What else, what else do I need?
Just you, only you are enough.
My dear... my dear...
You are everything to me.
Whoever comes... whoever goes...
You alone never leave my side.
Just for me, a...
Just for me, a...
Soul exists...
A soul exists...
Rain is pouring...
Rain is pouring.
And that is none other than you.
A sky of my own,
A cloud of my own,
Rain is pouring,
Rain is pouring,
Rain is pouring,
Oh my, that is none other than you.
