நான் உன் அழகினிலே
தெய்வம் உணர்கிறேன்
உந்தன் அருகினிலே
என்னை உணருகிறேன்
In your beauty,
I perceive divinity.
By your side,
I feel myself.
உன் முகம் தாண்டி
மனம் சென்று உன்னை
பார்த்ததால் உன் இதயத்தின்
நிறம் பார்த்ததால்
In your beauty,
I perceive divinity.
By your side,
I feel myself.
நான் உன் அழகினிலே
தெய்வம் உணர்கிறேன்
உந்தன் அருகினிலே
என்னை உணருகிறேன்
To merge with me and to attain you,
What penance did I perform?
என்னில் இணைய
உன்னை அடைய என்ன
தவங்கள் செய்தேனோ
Intertwining both our hearts and walking,
We shall witness a caressing world.
In the light of love and the expanse of time,
We shall walk, leaving our footprints.
நெஞ்சம் இரண்டும்
கோர்த்து நடந்து கொஞ்சும்
உலகை காண்போம் காதல்
ஒளியில் கால வெளியில்
கால்கள் பதித்து போவோம்
No one has ever seen until now,
The love that I have felt.
O my life, because you felt the very same,
இதுவரை யாரும்
கண்டதில்லை நான்
உணர்ந்த காதலை உயிரே
அதையே நீ உணர்ந்ததால்
In your beauty,
I perceive divinity.
By your side,
I feel myself.
நான் உன் அழகினிலே
தெய்வம் உணர்கிறேன்
உந்தன் அருகினிலே
என்னை உணருகிறேன்
The sky is a dream, the earth is a dream,
Only you and I are real.
வானம் கனவு
பூமி கனவு நீயும் நானும்
நிஜம் தானே
Lies dissolve, truth unfolds,
Why is everything else fading away?
As you sip from my lips,
Why does the universe dissolve?
பொய்கள் கரையும்
உண்மை விரியும் யாவும்
மறைவதேனோ எந்தன்
இதழை நீயும் குடிக்க
அண்டம் கரைவதேனோ
The whole world has turned crimson,
As your shyness spills,
O my love, because I reside in it.
Female: In your beauty,
I perceive divinity.
By your side,
I feel myself.
உலகமே
அகசிவப்பில் ஆனதே
உனது நாணம் சிந்தியே
உறவே அதிலே நான் வசிப்பதால்
Going beyond your face,
Because my mind reached out and saw you,
Because I saw the true color of your heart,
நான் உன் அழகினிலே
தெய்வம் உணர்கிறேன்
உந்தன் அருகினிலே
என்னை உணருகிறேன்
In your beauty,
I perceive divinity.
உன் முகம் தாண்டி
மனம் சென்று உன்னை
பார்த்ததால் உன் இதயத்தின்
நிறம் பார்த்ததால்
நான் உன் அழகினிலே
தெய்வம் உணர்கிறேன்
உந்தன் அருகினிலே
என்னை உணருகிறேன்
உன் முகம் தாண்டி
மனம் சென்று உன்னை
பார்த்ததால் உன் இதயத்தின்
நிறம் பார்த்ததால்
நான் உன் அழகினிலே
தெய்வம் உணருகிறேன்
