{ மறந்ததே
நொடிகளும் பறந்ததே
மௌனமும் நிரம்பியே
உந்தன் அருகிலே } (2)
The moments were forgotten
They flew away
Filled with silence
Beside you (Repeated twice)
நான் நினைவின்
பாதை மீது நடக்குறேன்
அதில் முதல் காலடியில்
உன்னை சுமக்குறேன்
I am on the path of memories
Walking upon it
In its very first step
I carry you
ஒரு நண்பன்
போதும் என்று நீ
கூறினால் உன்தோள்
சாய பக்கம் வந்தேன்
If you say that
Just one friend is enough
To lean on your shoulder
I came close to you
பக்கம் வர
துடிக்கிறேன் பக்கம்
வர துடிக்கிறேன்
ஆ ஆ ஆ ஆ
I yearn to come close
I yearn to come close
Aaaa…..aaaa…..aaa…..
{ மறந்ததே
நொடிகளும் பறந்ததே

The moments were forgotten
They flew away
Filled with silence
Beside you (Repeated twice)
கண்மூடும்
நேரத்தில் கனவா
வந்த கவலைய
மறந்து நான் தூங்கினேன்
When I close my eyes
You came as a dream
Forgetting my worries
I slept peacefully
தொடரும்
இந்த கனவுல நிஜத்தை
தேடி அலைகிறேன்
நொடிகள் கடந்து
போகவே நீ எந்தன்
அருகில் வேண்டுமே
In this ongoing dream
I wander searching for reality
As seconds pass away
I need you by my side
ஒரு நண்பன்
போதும் என்று நீ
கூறினால் உன்தோள்
சாய பக்கம் வந்தேன்
If you say that
Just one friend is enough
To lean on your shoulder
I came close to you
பக்கம் வர
துடிக்கிறேன் பக்கம்
வர துடிக்கிறேன்
ராரா ராரா ராரா ராரா
ராரா ராரா ராரா ராரா
I yearn to come close
