நெஞ்சோரமா நீ என்ன செய்யிற
மின்சாரமா என்ன தாக்கி போகுற
கண்ணோரமா நீ கொஞ்சம் பாக்குற
மென் சாரலா என்ன தொட்டு போகுற
You do something to me at the corner of my heart
You strike me like electricity and go
You glance at me out of the corner of your eyes
You touch me like a soft drizzle and go
உன்னோடு நான் பேச பேச பேசும் நேரம்
ஓடுதே நிற்காமல் வேகமா
உன் கண்களால் இன்னும் நெருங்கி பழக சொல்லி
ஏங்குதே என் நெஞ்சம் அதிகமாய்
ஆயிரம் மின்னலாய் பேசி போகிறாய்
As I keep talking with you, the time we spend talking
Runs fast without stopping
Asking me through your eyes to get even closer
My heart yearns intensely
You speak like a thousand flashes of lightning and go
நெஞ்சோரமா நீ என்ன செய்யிற
மின்சாரமா என்ன தாக்கி போகுற
கண்ணோரமா நீ கொஞ்சம் பாக்குற
மென் சாரலா என்ன தொட்டு போகுற
என்ன தொட்டு போகுற...
என்ன தொட்டு போகுற....
You do something to me at the corner of my heart
You strike me like electricity and go
You glance at me out of the corner of your eyes
You touch me like a soft drizzle and go
You touch me and go
You touch me and go...

யாரயோ பார்ப்பதால் என்ன பார்க்கையில்
வெட்கம் காட்டுறா
ஜாடைய வீசியே நானும் பேசயில்
கோபம் காட்டுறா
என்னவோ செய்கிறா நெஞ்சையே கொய்கிறா
கூடவே என்னையும் கூட்டி போகுறா
கூர்மையா பார்த்து தான் கூறு போடுற
(Rhythmic vocalization)
Just by looking at someone else
You show shyness when looking at me
By casting playful gestures
You show anger when I talk too
You do something that plucks my heart
You take me along with you
By looking sharply, you cut me into pieces
உன் பார்வையால் என்ன கட்டி போடுற
உன்னோடு தான் கண்ணு கூட்டி போகுற
தொடாமலே நீ தீய மூட்டுற
விடாமலே என்ன நீயும் தேடுற
With your gaze, you tie me down
My eyes wander along only with you
Without even touching, you light a fire
Without letting go, you search for me
இப்போதெல்லாம் உன் கூட கூட சேர்ந்து போக
ஆவலா என் கால்கள் ஏங்குதே
என்னானதோ உந்தன் பேரை கேட்கும் நேரம்
துள்ளலா என் கண்கள் திரும்புதே
கூப்பிடும் தூரத்தில் வாழ தோணுதே
Nowadays, to go along and join with you
My feet long eagerly
I don't know what happens, the moment I hear your name
My eyes turn with a sudden leap of joy
I feel like living within calling distance
