Male: What is the language spoken by the eyes, what else?
விரல்கள் தீண்ட
மெழுகாய் ஆனேன் விலகி
இருந்தால் என்ன
As fingers touched, I became like wax..
What if we stay apart?
உறவை தேடும்
உயிரை நானும் உருகி
கிடந்தால் என்ன
I am a soul searching for intimacy..
What if I lay here melting?
இது ஆசை
பேச்சா என்ன நான்
வாங்கும் மூச்சா என்ன
Is this talk of desire?
Is this the breath I take?
இள வேனில்
காற்றா என்ன இவள்
தேனின் ஊற்றா என்ன
Is it a breeze in the summer?
Is she a fountain of honey?

மார்பில் நீந்தும்
நிலவே உன்னை வானம்
மறந்தால் என்ன
Oh moon lingering on my chest, you...
What if the sky forgets you?
இதய கதவை
திறந்தேன் மெல்ல நானும்
கரைந்தால் என்ன
I gently opened the door of my heart,
What if I dissolve into it?
வரும் கால
வரலாற்றிலே இனி
நாமும் கலந்தால்
என்ன
In the history of coming time,
What if we mingle together now?
இதை மீறும்
காதல் இல்லை என
பாடம் உரைத்தால் என்ன
There is no love that surpasses this,
What if we teach a lesson saying so?
இனி என்ன கேள்வி
என்ன என்னை தந்தேன்
வேறு என்ன
