நான் பிழை இனி
உந்தன் விழிகளே
மெய் கதிர் ஒளி
நீயும் சிரிப்பது
என் கொடை அடி
எனை பாரம்மா
I am a mistake from now on,
Your eyes are
The true light of rays.
Your laughter is
My summer sunshine.
Look at me, my dear.
நம் இடை வெளி
அதைக் குறைத்திடு
என் கரம் பிடி
உந்தன் உதடுகள் என் வசம் இனி
மெய்தான் அம்மா
The space between us,
Reduce that gap.
Hold my hand.
Your lips are under my sway now.
It is true, my dear.
கேட்காதம்மா
நீ தடுப்பினும்
உந்தன் பெண்மை தூண்டுதே
மாறாதம்மா
உன் அழகினை கண்டு
நெஞ்சம் ஏங்குதே
It won't listen, my dear.
Even if you stop me,
Your truth compels me.
It won't change, my dear.
Seeing your beauty,
My heart longs.

Gathering a shield of many flowers,

Facing many battles,
Shall I reach you?
Listen to my words, don't go away.
