Only you, at night, I
Must wear like clothing.
Among clothes, why do I need
A nighty at all?

Coaxing and talking warmly to you.

Even if driven away, it never leaves,
The memory of you.
Female: Continuously play your drama
Around my waist.

விட காஸ்லி உந்தன்
அன்பு வேண்டும்

A million dollars for me
Is needed for this.
More precious than that, your
Love is what I need.

You must come to touch.
Female: As I touch and touch again,
You must give in return.
உனக்கும்
எனக்கும் பயணம்
செய்ய ஒரே
போட்டு தான்
எனது கால்கள்
நடப்பதென்றும் உனது
ரூட்டு தான்
For you and me to travel,
There is only one boat.
Female: For my feet to walk,
Your route is the only path.
