My sweet princess, why are you leaving and raising the heat?
My love, do not lock the door of your heart.
You are a block of sweet jaggery, deceiving me with shyness.
Do not keep moving away step by step, leaving me helpless.
I have kept you safely protected, placing you in a cradle inside my heart.
செல்லகுட்டி ராசாத்தி போறதென்ன சூடேத்தி
கண்ணே உன் காதல் கதவ வைக்காத சாத்தி
வெள்ளைக்கட்டி நீ ஆத்தி வெக்கமென்னு ஏமாத்தி
எட்டி எட்டி போகாதடி என்னை மல்லாத்தி
உன்னை நான் நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள
தொட்டில் கட்டி வெச்சேன் காப்பாத்தி
Oh, beauty lies scattered in abundance!
Come along with me and get acquainted a little.
Your eyes are a boat that safely brings me to shore.
An eagle wishes to swoop down and peck at you.
How shiny like smooth wax is your body!
I am a sluice gate that tames and controls even wild rivers.
அடி கொட்டி கெடக்குது அழகு
நீ கூட வந்து கொஞ்சம் பழகு
உன் கண்ணே என்னை கரையில் ஏத்தும் படகு....
உன்னை கொத்த நினைக்குது கழுகு
உன் மேனி எங்கும் என்ன மெழுகு
நான் காட்டாறையும் அடக்கி ஆளும் மதகு.....
I am a brave solitary warrior, my girl!
I am the perfect match for you!
Your silky, soft cheeks,
Watch me place kisses on them, touch by touch!
ஒண்டி வீரன் நானடி
உனக்கேத்த ஆளும் தானடி
உன் பட்டு பட்டு கன்னம்
தொட்டு தொட்டு முத்தம் வெப்பேன் பாரடி
I am like the victorious spear!
I will never put on any fake disguise, my girl!
Born to your aunt,
Who can surpass this precious pearl?
வெற்றி வேலும் நானடி
வெளி வேஷம் போட மாட்டேன்டி
உன் அத்தை அத்தை பெத்த
முத்து ரத்தினத்த மிஞ்ச யாரடி
Beat the drums!

My sweet princess, I will not leave and raise the heat.
Because of you, I changed my walk and my path.
You are a block of sweet jaggery, tricking a young girl.
Do not leave bit by bit; keep your love safe.
I let you swing inside my soul without saying a word yesterday.
செல்லகுட்டி ராசாத்தி போக மாட்டேன் சூடேத்தி
உன்னால நானும் நடைய வெச்சேனே மாத்தி
வெள்ளைக்கட்டி நீ ஆத்தி வெடலை பொண்ண ஏமாத்தி
விட்டு விட்டு போகாத உன் அன்ப காப்பாத்தி
உசுரில் ஊஞ்சல் கட்டி ஆட விட்டேன் சொல்லாம நேத்தி
My fingers yearn to gather and embrace you.
My voice exists only to pronounce your name.
Are you love personified, a divine deity, or pure grace?
The day begins only upon touching you.
In your speech, sunshine brings a soothing drizzle.
If your eyes glance upon it, even a fierce storm will vanish.
உன்னை அள்ளி அணைக்குது விரலு
பேரை சொல்ல மட்டும் தானே கொரலு
நீ காதல் என்னும் கடவுளோ அருளு
உன்னை தொட்டு தொடங்குது பகலு
பேச்சில் சாரல் அடிக்குது வெயிலு
உன் கண்ணு பட்டா காணா போகும் புயலு
I am a brave solitary warrior, my girl!
I am the perfect match for you!
Your silky, soft cheeks,
Watch me place kisses on them, touch by touch!
ஒண்டி வீரன் நானடி
உனக்கேத்த ஆளும் தானடி
