ஹா...ஆஅ..ஆ..ஆ
டு யூ லவ் மீ
Ha..aaa..aaa..aaa…aa…
Do you love me?
நிச்சயம் நானே நேச்சுரல் பியூட்டி
நினைத்ததை செய்வேன் தட்ஸ் மை ட்யூட்டி
விழிகளினாலே கதை பல சொல்வேன்
இதழ்களினாலே இன்சுவை தருவேன்...ச்சூ..
I am definitely a natural beauty,
Doing whatever I wish is my duty.
I will tell many stories through my eyes,
I will offer sweet taste through my lips... *kiss*

நிச்சயம் நானே நேச்சுரல் பியூட்டி
நினைத்ததை செய்வேன் தட்ஸ் மை ட்யூட்டி
I am definitely a natural beauty,
Doing whatever I wish is my duty.
கண்ணாடி போலே மேலே தன்னாலே
மின்னும் நைலக்ஸ்
கண்ணாலே பேசும்போது முன்னாலே
தோன்றும் ஐடெக்ஸ்
Like a shiny mirror up above,
Nylex fabric that gleams on its own,
When speaking with my eyes, right before you
Eyetex kajal appears.
பொன்னான கைகள் மீது
எந்நாளும் காணும் க்யூடேக்ஸ்
தேனாகக் கொஞ்சும் நேரம்
பூவாக மாறும் லிப்டிக்ஸ்
Upon my golden hands,
Cutex nail polish seen every day,
When cooing as sweet as honey,
Lipstick turns soft like a flower.
கேன் ஐ கிஸ்
பும்சிக்கு பும்சிக்கு

Seeing me, a desirable woman,
Harboring a wish to marry me,
Entering a fierce competition,
If everyone stands in a queue,
பெண்ணான என்னைக் கண்டு
கல்யாண ஆசைக் கொண்டு
பொல்லாத போட்டி போட்டு
எல்லோரும் க்யூ வில் நின்றால்
I will come gracefully,
Shyly bending forward in front of them,
And if I tease them with my eyes asking 'When?',
They will stumble and sway!
I am sorry!
In my dream life,
My wishes will be fulfilled,
Living in India,
An International beauty!
நன்றாக நானும் வந்து
முன்நாணிக் கோணி நின்று
கண்ணாளா என்று சொன்னால்
தள்ளாடி ஆடுவாரே
ஐ ஆம் சாரி
எந்தன் ஆசை வாழ்வில்
எண்ணம் நிறைவாகும்
இந்தியாவில் வாழும்
இன்டர் நேஷனல் பியூட்டி
I am definitely a natural beauty,
Doing whatever I wish is my duty.
I will tell many stories through my eyes,
I will offer sweet taste through my lips... *kiss*
நிச்சயம் நானே நேச்சுரல் பியூட்டி
