பொய்யோ மெய்யோ போதும் அய்யோ
விழிகளெல்ல்லாம் நீயே அய்யோ
ராவுகள் வீசும் கூந்தல் அய்யோ
ரீங்காரமாய் நெஞ்சில் அய்யோ
Is it a lie or truth? Enough, oh my!
My eyes see only you, oh my!
Your hair blows like the dark nights, oh my!
Resonating softly in my heart, oh my!
முடியாமல் என் மார்பில் ஓடும்
முதல் பார்வைகள் அந்தாதி ஆகும்
ஆகாயம் பெண்பாலின் வாசம்
அடி நூறாண்டு ஓர் நாளாய் மாறும்
Endlessly running across my chest,
First glances turn into an endless poem.
The sky carries a feminine fragrance,
Hey, a hundred years turn into a single day.
இது கானல் விதி ஒரு மாய சதி
புரியாதே மதி இனி நீயே கதி
This is the law of love, a magical trick,
The mind fails to understand; from now on, you are my sole refuge.
ஓயே ஓயே
உன் மூச்சுக் காத்தது வழியே நீயே
ஓயே ஓயே
உயிரோடு சேர்த்து கொள்வாயா
Hey hey,
You are the path through which your breath flows.
Hey hey,
Will you hold me tight along with your life?
ஓயே ஓயே
நான் சேர்க்கும் ஒற்றை பிம்பம் நீ
ஓயே ஓயே
என் காட்சி கூட்டில் நிற்பாயா
ஓயே ஓயே ஓ… ஓ…
ஓயே ஓயே ஹோ…ஹோ…
என் காட்சி கூட்டில் நிற்பாயா
Hey hey,
You are the single reflection I collect.
Hey hey,
Will you stand inside my frame of vision?
Hey hey ..oo oo,
Hey hey hoo hoo,
Will you stand inside my frame of vision?
பாவம் மான் நான் ஏன் என்னை
கவிஞன் செய்து போனேயா
பார்வை எதிரில் பித்தன் போல்
உன்னை நான் உளறத்தானோ
I was just an innocent deer, but you...
Made me into a poet and walked away.
In front of your gaze, like a madman,
Did I realize your presence?
ராகம் மீட்டும் மூங்கில் மேல்
முத்தம் வைத்து போனாயோ
இசையை மறந்து தூங்காமல்
உன் பேர் சொல்லி சாய்ந்தேனாே
Upon the flute that plays a melody,
Did you leave a kiss and walk away?
Forgetting the music and staying awake,
Did I lean back, whispering your name?
கூடாரம் ஆகும் என் நெஞ்சமே
குளிரோடு நின்றாய் சிறுமேகமே
நெடுந்தூரம் தாண்டி எந்நேரமே
குறையாத என்றும் எப்போதுமே
My heart becomes a tent,
You stood in the cold like a tiny cloud.
Crossing long distances at all times,
It never diminishes, forever and ever.
அழைப்பேனா அணைப்பேனா
நிழல்போல நடப்பேனா
தொடர்ந்து வருவேனே
Will I call you? Will I embrace you?
Will I walk like a shadow?
I will keep following you.
ஓயே ஓயே
உன் மூச்சுக் காத்தது வழியே நீயே
ஓயே ஓயே
உயிரோடு சேர்த்து கொள்வாயா
Hey hey,
You are the path through which your breath flows.
Hey hey,
Will you hold me tight along with your life?
ஓயே ஓயே
நான் சேர்க்கும் ஒற்றை பிம்பம் நீ
ஓயே ஓயே
என் காட்சி கூட்டில் நிற்பாயா
Hey hey,
You are the single reflection I collect.
Hey hey,
Will you stand inside my frame of vision?
பொய்யோ மெய்யோ போதும் அய்யோ
விழிகளெல்ல்லாம் நீயே அய்யோ
ராவுகள் யாவும் கேள்வி அய்யோ
வேறொரு காதல் உண்டோ அய்யோ
Is it a lie or truth? Enough, oh my!
My eyes see only you, oh my!
All nights become questions, oh my!
Is there another love like this, oh my?
முடியாமல் என் மார்பில் ஓடும்
முதல் பார்வைகள் அந்தாதி ஆகும்
ஆகாயம் நீயாக வேணும்
பல நூறாண்டு ஓர் நாளாய் மாறும்
Endlessly running across my chest,
First glances turn into an endless poem.
The sky itself should become you,
Many hundred years turn into a single day.
இது காதல் விதி ஒரு மாய சதி
உணரந்தேனே மதி இனி நீயே கதி
This is the law of love, a magical trick,
My mind has realized; from now on, you are my sole refuge.
ஓயே ஓயே
உன் மூச்சுக் காத்தது வழியே நீயே
ஓயே ஓயே
உயிரோடு சேர்த்து கொள்வாயா
Hey hey,
You are the path through which your breath flows.
Hey hey,
Will you hold me tight along with your life?
ஓயே ஓயே
நான் சேர்க்கும் ஒற்றை பிம்பம் நீ
ஓயே ஓயே
என் காட்சி கூட்டில் நிற்பாயா
ஓயே ஓயே ஓஓ..
ஓயே ஓயே ஓஓ..
என் காட்சி கூட்டில் நிற்பாயா

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song is a soul-stirring romantic track where the protagonist reflects on the overwhelming feeling of falling deeply in love. Love is depicted as a sweet trick of destiny that blurs the lines between reality and dream. Time loses its usual pace—a century feels like a brief day—and the lover's gaze transforms a once-simple soul into an expressive poet.

Compares walking along with the beloved to a shadow following them everywhere.

Trivia
