Naetru unna paaththu
Naetru unna paaththu
En nenjula ullatha kannula sonnaenae
Nee eppavum konjanum soppanam kanadaenae
Aasa theeraththaan ada jodi saeraththaan
Vanthaal santhosam Chinnaponnu
Naetru unna paaththu
Un neththiyil vaikkira kunguma pottaattam
Thala maththiyil vaikkira malligai poovaattam
Aasa theeraththaan unna naanum saeraththaan
Vanthaal santhosam chinnaponnu
Naetru unna paaththu
Male :Naetru unna paaththu
Thenkaasi kuththaalam
Thenkaasi kuththaalam arukirukka
Thooralthaan saaralthaan thelichchirukka
Sillunnu poongaaththu adichirukka
Thaalaama en dhegam thudichchirukka
Atta pol ottikadi kannae
Anganagae kulir adangum
Achchaaram vaangikkadi naala
Machchaanin nenappirukkum
Mella mella thoondi podurae
En mama ella kotta thaandi paadurae
Vaa ennai thodu
Naetru unna paaththu
Naetru unna paaththu
Un neththiyil vaikkira kunguma pottaattam
Thala maththiyil vaikkira malligai poovaattam
Aasa theeraththaan ada jodi saeraththaan
Vanthaal santhosam chinnaponnu
Naetru unna paaththu
Naetru unna paaththu
Raavaanaa theeyaattam
Raavaanaa theeyaattam nilaverikka
Ammaadi angangae analadikka
Neiyaattam en maeni uruguthaiyaa
Nikkaama siththaada nazhuvuthaiyaa
En paadum unnaattamthan maanae
En nenjum thavikkuthadi
Unnaama thoongaamaththaan naalum
Ullaara kodhikkuthadi
Pesi pesi kaakka vaikkirae
En mama kenji kenji kekka vaikkirae
Vaa ennai thodu
Naetru unna paaththu
Naetru unna paaththu
En nenjula ullatha kannula sonnaenae
Nee eppavum konjanum soppanam kanadaenae
Aasa theeraththaan unna naanum saeraththaan
Vanthaal santhosam chinnaponnu
Naetru unna paaththu
Female :Naetru unna paaththu
Looking at you yesterday,
looking at you yesterday,
I told you through my eyes what was in my heart.
I dreamt that you would hold me and love me forever.
To satisfy our longing, to unite as a couple,
it will bring such joy if you come, my sweet girl.
Looking at you yesterday...
Like the red kumkum mark on your forehead,
like the jasmine flowers tucked in your hair,
to satisfy my desire, to unite with you,
it will bring such joy if you come, my sweet girl.
Looking at you yesterday...
Male: Looking at you yesterday,
Tenkasi and Courtallam—
with Tenkasi and Courtallam so close by,
with a drizzle and cool spray falling all around,
with a chilly breeze gently blowing,
unable to bear it, my body trembles with longing.
Cling tight to me like a leech, my dear,
and the chill all over will fade away.
Take this advance token of my love,
and tomorrow you will still be longing for your sweetheart.
Bit by bit, you cast your hook,
my dear man, you cross every boundary with your song!
Come, touch me!
Looking at you yesterday,
looking at you yesterday...
Like the red kumkum mark on your forehead,
like the jasmine flowers tucked in your hair,
to satisfy our longing, to unite as a couple,
it will bring such joy if you come, my sweet girl.
Looking at you yesterday,
looking at you yesterday...
When night falls, like fire—
when night falls, the moonlight burns like fire,
oh my, heat radiates all over me,
my body is melting just like ghee,
and my garment keeps slipping away!
My state is just like yours, my dear,
my heart too is restless with yearning.
Without food or sleep, day after day,
a fire boils deep within me.
Talking on and on, you keep me waiting,
my dear man, you make me plead and ask for love!
Come, touch me!
Looking at you yesterday,
looking at you yesterday,
I told you through my eyes what was in my heart.
I dreamt that you would hold me and love me forever.
To satisfy my desire, to unite with you,
it will bring such joy if you come, my sweet girl.
Looking at you yesterday...
