ஆத்தி யாரடி
ஏக்கம் தாரடி
கொத்து கொத்தா
ஆசை வெச்சி மொத்தமாக
தூக்கி போரடி
Oh my, who are you, girl?
You give me such yearning, girl
In bunches and bunches
Placing all your desires
You carry me away, girl
சாஞ்சி பாரடி
சாஞ்சே போனேன்டி
கன்னத்தோட கன்னம் வச்சி
கிச்சு கிச்சு மூட்டி போரடி
Lean on me and see, girl
I have completely leaned into you, girl
Placing cheek against cheek
Tickling me and walking away, girl
நீ சொன்ன வார்த்த
நான் சேர்த்து வெச்சேன்
என் மூச்சு காத்தா
நான் மாத்தி வெச்சேன்
The words you spoke
I have saved them up
Into my very breath
I converted and kept them
எஞ் சிறு மைலாஞ்ஜியே
மயங்கிடு நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள
எஞ் சிறு கள்ளலியே
தவிக்குது உள்ளுக்குள்ளே
My little henna plant
Swoon inside my heart
My little precious jewel
Yearning deep within
எனக்கென நீ இருந்தா
ஒருத்தரும் தேவை இல்ல
மடியில தூங்க செஞ்சா
சாகவும் பயமே இல்ல
If you are there for me
I need no one else
If you let me sleep in your lap
I have no fear of even death
ஆத்தி யாரடி
ஏக்கம் தாரடி
கொத்து கொத்தா
ஆசை வெச்சி மொத்தமாக
தூக்கி போரடி
Oh my, who are you, girl?
You give me such yearning, girl
In bunches and bunches
Placing all your desires
You carry me away, girl
உள்ளங்கைகுள்ளே முகம் வச்சி
ஒட்டி கொள்ள
காலம் பூரா நீ வேணும்
உன்ன பாக்காத ஒத்த நொடி
நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள
ஏனோ கண்ணீரா மாறி தெறிக்கும்
Hiding my face in your palms
To hold you close
I need you for a lifetime
A single moment without seeing you
Inside my heart
Splashes like tears for some reason
ஹான் ஹா
நீயில்லா நான்தான்னா
நெனைச்சி நான் பாக்கல
கைகள் கோக்கனும் தெனம்
மூச்சத மொத மொற
விரலுல பாக்குறேன்
கூசுதா நடுங்குதா
Vocalizing...
Without you, I
Cannot even imagine existing
Hands should entwine every day
For all the breath we share
I look at my fingers
Are they tingling, are they trembling?
மிஞ்சிய மாட்ட
உன் கால் எடுத்து
இதமா நெஞ்சோடு வைப்பேனே
கொஞ்சிய தோளுல சாஞ்சிருப்பேன்
உசுரே என் தாரம் வா நீ தானே
Wordless affection left behind
Taking your foot
Gently placing it upon my chest
Leaning on your affectionate shoulder
Oh my life, my wife, come to me
எஞ் சிறு மைலாஞ்ஜியே
மயங்கிடு நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள
எஞ் சிறு கள்ளலியே
தவிக்குது உள்ளுக்குள்ளே
My little henna plant
Swoon inside my heart
My little precious jewel
Yearning deep within

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
Aathi Yaaradi from the movie Sivappu Manjal Pachai is an intimate, romantic melody expressing deep affection and devotion towards a soulmate. The protagonist reflects on how every word spoken by his partner becomes his breath, and how her presence alleviates all fears, including the fear of death itself.
