Nenjil vaazhgira paadalae
Konjam paadida vaa
Kannil neelgira kavithayae
Konjam pesida vaa vaa
Mullai poovena aasaiyai
Sollum paarvaiyilae
Kollai ponathu irudhayam
Ulagam kidaithathu polae
Aah..aaa…..aaa…aaa….aa…
Vellai theeyena gnyaabagam

O song living in my heart,
Come sing for a while.
O poem lingering in my eyes,
Come speak for a while, come, come.
Expressing desire like a sweet jasmine,
in that gaze of yours,
My heart was stolen away,
as though I won the whole world.
Ah......ah.....ah.....ah....ah....
Like a white flame, your memory
kindles within my heart.
Like flashes of lightning, memories
blossom upon my eyelids...
O song living in my heart,
Come sing for a while.
O poem lingering in my eyes,
Come speak for a while, come, come.
O song living in my heart,
Come sing for a while.
