அடி பெண்ணே என் கண்ணே
என் மனதில் முழுதாய் நீதானே
நினைவிலே கனவிலே
என் வழியின் வெளிச்சம் நீதானே
Hey girl, my darling
You are completely in my heart, aren't you?
In my thoughts and in my dreams
You are the light guiding my path, aren't you?
உன்னை பிரிந்திருக்கும் நேரம்
தினமும் என் மனது ஏங்கும்
நீ வராத கரை ஓரம்
தாரி என் மனது தேடும்
During the times I am separated from you
My heart yearns for you every single day
Along the shore where you do not come
My heart searches for you, my beloved
தானாய் தேடும் கண்கள்
உன் பெயர் கேட்டாலே
இரவுகள் நீளும்போது
உன் பெயர் முனுப்பேனே
Eyes that automatically search for you
Whenever they hear your name
As the nights grow longer
I keep murmuring your name
எந்தன் உயிரே என்னை மட்டும்
ஒரு நாளும் பிரியாதே
உந்தன் காதல் என்னை கொஞ்சம்
நெருங்காமல் விலகுதே
Oh my soul, from me
Never part away on any day
Your love retreats from me a little
Moving away without drawing near
அடி பெண்ணே என் கண்ணே
என் மனதில் முழுதாய் நீதானே
நினைவிலே கனவிலே
என் வழியின் வெளிச்சம் நீதானே
Hey girl, my darling
You are completely in my heart, aren't you?
