நான் கொடுத்ததை திருப்பிக் கொடுத்தால்
முத்தமா கொடு அத மொத்தமா கொடு
சின்ன கண்மணி உன் செல்லக் கண்மணி
If you return what I gave you
Give it as a kiss, give it all completely
Your little darling, your dear darling
நான் கொடுத்ததை திருப்பிக் கொடுத்தால்
முத்தமா கொடு அத மொத்தமா கொடு
நான் கொடுத்ததை திருப்பிக் கொடுத்தால்
முத்தமா கொடு அத மொத்தமா கொடு
கொண்டாட்டம் டம் போட்டால் ஜம் ஜம்
வண்டாட்டம் டம் வந்தால் யோகம் யோகம்
If you return what I gave you
Give it as a kiss, give it all completely
If you return what I gave you
Give it as a kiss, give it all completely
When celebration strikes, it is grand
If fortune comes humming like a bee, it is great luck
நான் கொடுத்ததை திருப்பிக் கொடுத்தால்
முத்தமா கொடு அத மொத்தமா கொடு
If you return what I gave you
Give it as a kiss, give it all completely
என்னை சுற்றி வட்டம் இடுது ராஜா
உள்ளம் ஒரு திட்டம் இடுது
தொட்ட இடம் தாளமிடுது ராஜா
மற்ற இடம் தத்தளிக்குது
It circles around me, my king
My heart is plotting a plan
The spot you touched beats to a rhythm, my king
The rest of my body trembles in longing
நானா நானா வந்தேன் அன்பே
வம்பாய் கொண்டு வந்தாய் இங்கே
ஏழெடுக்கு மாளிகையும் தேவையில்லை ராஜா
வாழும் வரை உன்னுடன்தான் வாழும் இந்த ரோஜா
வண்டைப் போல பாட்டு பாடு
வந்து வந்து ஆட்டம் போடு
Did I come here on my own accord, my love?
You teasingly brought me here
I do not need a seven-story mansion, my king
This rose will live with you as long as it lives
Sing a song like a honeybee
Come over again and again and dance
நான் கொடுத்ததை திருப்பிக் கொடுத்தால்
முத்தமா கொடு அத மொத்தமா கொடு
நான் கொடுத்ததை திருப்பிக் கொடுத்தால்
முத்தமா கொடு அத மொத்தமா கொடு
கொண்டாட்டம் டம் போட்டால் ஜம் ஜம்
வண்டாட்டம் டம் வந்தால் யோகம் யோகம்
If you return what I gave you
Give it as a kiss, give it all completely
If you return what I gave you
Give it as a kiss, give it all completely
When celebration strikes, it is grand
If fortune comes humming like a bee, it is great luck
நான் கொடுத்ததை திருப்பிக் கொடுத்தால்
முத்தமா கொடு அத மொத்தமா கொடு
If you return what I gave you
Give it as a kiss, give it all completely
உன் நினைப்பு உள்ளுக்குள் வந்து
ராஜா என்னை தினம் தொல்லை பண்ணுது
உச்சி முதல் பாதம் வரைக்கும்
ராஜா எத்தனையோ மின்னல் மின்னுது
Your memory enters deep inside
King, it teases and troubles me every day
From top to toe
King, so many flashes of lightning strike
தொட்டால் என்ன வெந்தா போகும்
தீயா சொல்லு எந்தன் தேகம்
ஆடையிட்டு மூடி வைத்த தேனிருக்கும் பாத்திரம்
வாங்கி வாங்கி நீ குடிக்க தீரும் உந்தன் ஆத்திரம்
யாருமில்லை இங்கு இன்று
என்னை மெல்ல கொஞ்சு கொஞ்சு.....
If touched, will it burn away?
Tell me, is my body made of fire?
A honey pot kept covered with clothing
As you drink it again and again, your eagerness will be quenched
There is no one around here today
Cuddle me gently, gently
நான் கொடுத்ததை திருப்பிக் கொடுத்தால்
முத்தமா கொடு அத மொத்தமா கொடு
நான் கொடுத்ததை திருப்பிக் கொடுத்தால்
முத்தமா கொடு அத மொத்தமா கொடு
கொண்டாட்டம் டம் போட்டால் ஜம் ஜம்
வண்டாட்டம் டம் வந்தால் யோகம் யோகம்
If you return what I gave you
Give it as a kiss, give it all completely
If you return what I gave you
Give it as a kiss, give it all completely
When celebration strikes, it is grand
If fortune comes humming like a bee, it is great luck

If you return what I gave you
Muththamaa kodu adha moththamaa kodu
