My dear pondatti
You are my cutie
Ye cheeni mittaaiye
Echi oora vechiye
Hey thaena minjum sweety di nee
Kalyana ponnae
Unna thooki poga vanthutene
Mappillai naanae
Unna konji konji theeradhada
Ennoda love-u
Un sundu viral pudikkum bothe
Yeruthu jivvu
Laila laila my dear laila
Mayila mayila enna aada vechiye
Female :Jaila jaila heart -ah jaila
Neeyum maati enna ulla vechiye
En mamanaarukku ratha kothippu venaam
Thanga nagai pottu alangaaram venam
Nee mattum vaadi en wife-u
Rocketu thaan en life-u
Raaja baga oothu di naan thaan
Naan cringe panni koduka matten tholla
Bestu husbandu in the world nu thaan solla
Nee onnum panna venamae

Ponguthae nee lovvunnu thaan solla
My dear pondatti
Ye cheeni mittaaiye
Nee paartha maram pathikuthae
Thanneer thaa maamooi
En moochu konjam sikkikudhu
Thalli poo maamooi
Ye konjam cringe-ah pose-ah koduthu
Eduppoma selfie
En manja kuruvi nee thaan
Ennaku midnight kulfi
Jollyah vaa maa kutty

Enna vittu oru nodi kooda piriyatha di
Vaalakattadha nee
Adi vangaama nee
Unna good boyaa maatha poren
Ready ah daa my dear maamooi
Ye cheeni mittaaiye
My dear pondatti
En kanna pinna love ah tharen

Vaa unna thaane konjanum di
Dhinamum thaan naanae
Ye maane thaenae kannae ellam
Suthama bore-uh
My dearunnu unna paathu paaduna jore-uh
My dear wife
You are my cutie
Hey, my sweet sugar candy
You make my mouth water
Hey girl, you are sweeter than honey
My bride,
I have come to sweep you away
I am your groom!
Pampering you never feels like enough,
This love of mine!
Just holding your little finger
Gives me such a thrilling rush!
Laila, Laila, my dear Laila
Like a peacock, you made me dance
Jail, jail, is your heart a jail?
You trapped me and locked me inside!
I don't want my father-in-law to get high blood pressure
No need to dress up in heavy gold jewelry
Just come as you are, my wife
My life will soar like a rocket!
Treat me like a king and serve me
I won't annoy you with cringe-worthy trouble
So you can call me the best husband in the world
You don't have to do anything at all
You don't even need to post stories online
Love just overflows when you say you love me
My dear wife
Hey, my sweet sugar candy
Even a tree catches fire when you glance at it
Give me some water, darling!
I'm losing my breath a bit
Step back a little, darling!
Hey, let's strike a funny, goofy pose
And take a selfie together?
You are my little yellow sparrow,
You are my sweet midnight kulfi (ice cream)
Come happily, my sweetheart
I am your loving man
Don't leave my side even for a second, girl
Don't act too mischievous
Before you get into trouble,
I'm going to turn you into a good boy
Get ready, my dear man!
Hey, my sweet sugar candy
My dear wife
I'll give you my crazy, wild love
Here it is, my love
Come, you are the one I want to pamper
Every single day!
Old cliches like 'my deer', 'my honey', and 'my darling'
Are totally boring now!
Singing 'My Dear' looking at you is the real fun!
