நெஞ்சமே நெஞ்சமே
என் நெஞ்சமே
உருகுமே உடையுமே
வா கொஞ்சமே நெஞ்சமே
உருகுமே நெஞ்சமே
Oh heart, Oh heart
My heart
It melts and breaks
Come, pamper me, my heart
My heart melts
ஐயோ நெஞ்சமே நெஞ்சமே
என் நெஞ்சமே
கரையுமே கலையுமே
வா கொஞ்சமே நெஞ்சமே
கரையுமே நெஞ்சமே
Oh my heart, oh my heart
My heart
It dissolves and fades
Come, pamper me, my heart
My heart dissolves
அட கண்ணா பின்னா கனவோடுதான்
நான் உன்ன உன்ன நினைச்சேன்
அடி ஒன்னா ரெண்டா வலியோடத்தான்
இப்போ துண்டா துண்டா உடைஞ்சேன்
With chaotic, wild dreams
I kept thinking only of you
Not with just one or two pains
Now I am broken into shattered pieces
{தவித்தேனே உன் நினைவில்
துடித்தேனே உன் பிரிவில்
அடி போடி.....
வலி தாங்கல தாங்கல தாங்கலையே} (2)
I suffered in your memory
I squirmed in your separation
Oh girl, go away...
I cannot bear, cannot bear, cannot bear the pain
என்னை விட்டு
நீ தூரம் போகாதடி
கண்கள் ரெண்டும் கண்ணீரில் தூங்காதடி
உன் கூடவே வாழ்கின்ற நிழல் நானடி
நிழலுக்குதான் வாய் பேச தெரியாதடி
I suffered in your memory
I squirmed in your separation
Oh girl, go away...
I cannot bear, cannot bear, cannot bear the pain
Leaving me behind
உன்னோடும் இல்லாமல்
என்னோடும் இல்லாமல்
நான் வாழ போகிறேன்
ஏராள வலியோடு
ஏதேதோ நினைவோடு ஏன் வாடுறேன்
Do not go far away
May both my eyes not sleep in tears
I am a shadow living alongside you
A shadow doesn't know how to speak, after all
Without being with you
அட கண்ணா பின்னா கனவோடுதான்
நான் உன்ன உன்ன நினைச்சேன்
அடி ஒன்னா ரெண்டா வலியோடதான்
இப்போ துண்டா துண்டா உடைஞ்சேன்
Without being with myself
I am going to live
With endless pain
Why am I wilting away with random memories?
{தவித்தேனே உன் நினைவில்
துடித்தேனே உன் பிரிவில்
அடி போடி.....
வலி தாங்கல தாங்கல தாங்கலையே} (2)
