தேவதை வந்து விட்டாள்
உன்னை தேடியே
வண்ண மாலைகள் சூட வந்தாள்
தங்க தேரிலே
An angel has arrived
In search of you
She came to wear colorful garlands
Riding on a golden chariot
தேவதை வந்து விட்டாள்
உன்னை தேடியே
வண்ண மாலைகள் சூட வந்தாள்
தங்க தேரிலே
An angel has arrived
In search of you
She came to wear colorful garlands
Riding on a golden chariot
நூறு நூறு ஜென்மம் வாழ்ந்திருக்க
நூலில் பூவை போல சேர்ந்திருக்க
தீபம் ஏற்றிவைத்து தேரிழுக்க
சேலை சோலை கொண்டு சேர்த்தணைக்க
புன்னகையில் பூ பறிக்க
To live together across hundreds of lifetimes
To remain bound together like flowers on a thread
To light lamps and pull the grand temple chariot
To embrace closely with a grove of saree folds
To pluck flowers born of a smile
தேவதை வந்து விட்டாள்
உன்னை தேடியே
வண்ண மாலைகள் சூட வந்தாள்
தங்க தேரிலே
An angel has arrived
In search of you
She came to wear colorful garlands
Riding on a golden chariot
பூக்கும் செடியை எல்லாம்
சிரிக்கும் பூவை எல்லாம்
உன் பெயரை கேட்டு இருந்தார்
All the blooming plants
All the smiling flowers
Were asking after your name
எட்டு திசையும் சேர்த்து
ஒற்றை திசையாய் மாற்றி
உன் வரவை பார்த்திருந்தார்
Combining all eight directions
And turning them into a single path
They watched eagerly for your arrival
கண்ணுகுள் கண்ணுகுள்
உன்னை வைத்து
நெஞ்சுக்குள் நெஞ்சுக்குள்
அன்பை வைத்து
உள்ளதை உள்ளதை அள்ளி தந்து
உன்னிடும் உன்னிடும் தன்னை தந்து
உன் நிழலில் வாழ்ந்திருக்க
உன் உயிரில் சேர்ந்திருக்க
Keeping you deep within her eyes
Keeping love deep within her heart
Gathering and offering her soul completely
Surrendering herself entirely to you
To live under your shadow
To be merged with your soul
தேவதை வந்து விட்டாள்
உன்னை தேடியே
An angel has arrived
In search of you
கொஞ்சும் கிளியே உன்னை
நெஞ்சில் உறங்கசொல்லி
தென்றல் என்னும் பாட்டிசைப்பார்
தேகம் நோகும் என்றால்
மேகம் கொண்டு வந்து
மெத்தை செய்து பூ விரிப்பார்
Oh sweet cooing parrot, to you
Asking you to sleep peacefully on the chest
He will sing a lullaby as a gentle breeze
வானத்து வானத்து நட்சத்திரம்
வாசலில் வாசலில் புள்ளி வைக்க
வானவில் வானவில் கொண்டு வந்து
வண்ணத்தில் கோலங்கள் இட்டு வைக்க
உள்ளங்கையில் பச்சை குத்தி
உன் பெயரை உச்சரிக்க
If your body feels weary or aches
He will bring down the clouds
To craft a mattress and spread flowers upon it
தேவதை வந்து விட்டாள்
உன்னை தேடியே
வண்ண மாலைகள் சூட வந்தாள்
தங்க தேரிலே
The stars in the vast night sky
Will serve as threshold dots for the entryway
Bringing down the vibrant rainbow
To draw colorful rangoli patterns
Tattooing green ink on the palm
To utter and chant your name
நூறு நூறு ஜென்மம் வாழ்ந்திருக்க
நூலில் பூவை போல சேர்ந்திருக்க
தீபம் ஏற்றிவைத்து தேரிழுக்க
சேலை சோலை கொண்டு சேர்த்தணைக்க
புன்னகையில் பூ பறிக்க
An angel has arrived
In search of you
She came to wear colorful garlands
Riding on a golden chariot
தேவதை வந்து விட்டாள்
உன்னை தேடியே
வண்ண மாலைகள் சூட வந்தாள்
