பாடல் ஆசிரியர் : விவேக்
If ten million rains poured down in a single second,
She sent a sweet, mesmerizing word right into my cells.
During a short tea break,
She dragged me into a swirling pool of honey.
She touches and grazes my soul,
கோடி மழை ஒரு நொடிக்குள்ளே அடித்து விட்டாள்
கோல மொழி உயிரனுக்குள்ளே அனுப்பி விட்டாள்
ஒரு தேனீர் இடைவெளியில்
சுழல் தேனில் இழுத்துவிட்டாள்
உயிர் தொட்டு உராய்கிறாள்
If ten million rains poured down in a single second.
Chorus: Oh Nandanandanaa!
Nandanandanaa
Nandanandanaa
கோடி மழை ஒரு நொடிக்குள்ளே அடித்து விட்டாள்
குழு : நந்தநந்தனா
நந்தநந்தனா
நந்தநந்தனா
Like a clear, fully blossomed flower,
She entered the house, ah ah...
Like a clear, fully blossomed flower,
She entered the house.
She drew poetry in the chambers of my dreams,
She gave me a few serene seconds just for myself,
She tied and pulled me into her messy strands of hair.
Is this life...
Why does it taste so sweet today?
தெளிந்த மலரென
வீட்டுக்குள் நுழைந்தாள் ..ஆஅ..ஆஅ
தெளிந்த மலரென
வீட்டுக்குள் நுழைந்தாள்
கனவின் அறைகளில் கவிதை வரைந்தாள்
அமைந்த சில நொடி எனக்கென கொடுத்தாள்
கலைந்த குழலுக்குள் என்னை கட்டி இழுத்தாள்
இந்த பிறவியோ
ஏன் இன்று தித்திக்கின்றதே
If ten million rains poured down in a single second...
கோடி மழை ஒரு நொடிக்குள்ளே அடித்து விட்டாள்
Sitting right next to me,
Is it a replica of an angel? Ah ah...
Sitting right next to me,
Is it a replica of an angel?
With curved eyebrows, is she Cupid's daughter?
Is that glowing motion in her wide eyes an oil lamp?
Was she born just to carry all this beauty?
Why does this life taste so sweet today?
அருகில் அமர்ந்தது
தேவதை நகலா ஆஅ..ஆஅ..
அருகில் அமர்ந்தது
தேவதை நகலா
வளைந்த புருவத்தில் மன்மதன் மகளா
அகண்ட விழிகளில் அசைவது அகலா
அழகை சுமந்திட பிறந்தவள் இவளா
இந்த பிறவியோ
ஏன் இன்று தித்திக்கின்றதே
If ten million rains poured down in a single second,
She sent a sweet, mesmerizing word right into my cells.
Chorus: Oh Nandanandanaa!
