↻ English translation
My dear young lover naan oru sun flower
Kaayuthae bath shower kaaranam love fever
Neeyum kooda bachelor
My dear young lover naan oru sun flower….
Thaagam vanthu orr vegam vanthu
Thegam engum mogam thanthu aadu
Paruva chittu ilamai mottu
Pakkam vanthu thottu thottu paadu
Kangalin jaadai kanniyin vaadai
Kaattinen paadhai oottuthaa bodhai
My dear young lover naan oru sun flower….
Kannam engum thaen kinnam undu
Chinnam vaiththu inbam solla vaa vaa
Chinna ponnu azhaikkumpothu
Chellam thanthu konji pesa vaa vaa
Engengu thottaal ennenna kidaikkum
Angangu thedu sorkkamae thirakkum
My dear young lover naan oru sun flower
Kaayuthae bath shower kaaranam love fever
Neeyum kooda bachelor
My dear young lover naan oru sun flower….
My dear young lover, I am a sunflower
The bath shower is burning hot, all because of love fever
And you are a bachelor too
My dear young lover, I am a sunflower...
A thirst arises and a rush takes over,
Filling the body with desire—dance!
A youthful bird, a tender bud,
Come close, touch me, and sing!
The hints in my eyes, the fragrance of a young girl,
I showed the path, does it intoxicate you?
My dear young lover, I am a sunflower...
There are cups of honey all over my cheeks,
Come leave your mark and share the joy, come, come!
When this young girl calls out to you,
Come shower your love and whisper sweet words, come, come!
See what you will get wherever you touch,
Search all over, and heaven will open up!
My dear young lover, I am a sunflower
The bath shower is burning hot, all because of love fever
And you are a bachelor too
My dear young lover, I am a sunflower...
