Pallaanguzhiyin vattam paarthen otrai naanayam
Pullaanguzhalin thulaigal paarthen otrai naanayam
Thudikum kangalil kanmani paarthen
Kadigarathil neram paarthen
Sevvandhi poovil naduvil paarthen
Dhesiya kodiyil sakaram paarthen
Iravil oru naal pournami paarthen
Otrai naanayam
Pallaanguzhiyin vattam paarthen otrai naanayam
Pullaanguzhalin thulaigal paarthen otrai naanayam
Adi kaalam muzhuvadhum kaathirupen
Nee kaanum idathinil poothirupen
Adi otrai rubaai pakkam irandum
Endhan anbu serndhirukum
Nenjil vaithu kaathiru
Thanga aabaranam ondrum thevaiyillai
Indha naanayam podhadhaa
Thazhuvum manadhai kunguma chimizhil
Thaduka mudiyadhaa
Selva seedhanamae nee sirikaiyilae
Pala sillarai sidhari vidum
Selavu seithida ninaithaal kooda
Idhayam padhari vidum
Pallaanguzhiyin vattam paarthen otrai naanayam
Pullaanguzhalin thulaigal paarthen otrai naanayam
Ada netru nadanthadhu naadagamaa
Nee kaasu koduthadhu soosagamaa
Ada otrai rubaai pakkam irandu
Enna solla kaasu thandhaai
Enni enni paarkiren
Adi perazhagae unnai serndhidavae
Indha naanayam oar saatchi
Irukum uyirum unakae ubayam
Edharku aaraaichi
Indha naanayathil unnai paarthirupen
Pirar paarkavum vida maaten
Kadavul vandhu ketaal kooda
Kaanikai ida maaten
Pallaanguzhiyin vattam paarthen otrai naanayam
Pullaanguzhalin thulaigal paarthen otrai naanayam
Thudikum kangalil kanmani paarthen
Kadigarathil neram paarthen
Sevvandhi poovil naduvil paarthen
Dhesiya kodiyil sakaram paarthen
Iravil oru naal pournami paarthen
Otrai naanayam
I saw the round pits of the pallanguzhi (traditional board game), a single coin.
I saw the holes of a flute, a single coin.
I saw the pupil in fluttering eyes,
I saw the time on a clock,
I saw the center of a chrysanthemum flower,
I saw the wheel on the national flag,
One night, I saw the full moon,
A single coin.
I saw the round pits of the pallanguzhi (traditional board game), a single coin.
I saw the holes of a flute, a single coin.
Oh girl, I will wait for a lifetime,
I will blossom wherever your eyes look.
On both sides of this one-rupee coin,
My love will be bound forever.
Keep it close to your heart and wait.
No gold jewelry is needed,
Isn't this single coin enough?
Can't this embracing heart
Be kept safe inside a kumkum box?
My precious treasure, when you laugh,
A shower of loose coins scatters.
Even if I ever think of spending it,
My heart trembles in fear.
I saw the round pits of the pallanguzhi (traditional board game), a single coin.
I saw the holes of a flute, a single coin.
Was what happened yesterday just an act?
Did you give me this coin as a secret hint?
On both sides of this one-rupee coin,
What were you trying to say by giving me this coin?
I keep thinking about it again and again.
Oh beautiful girl, for us to be united,
This coin is the witness.
Even my very life is a gift dedicated to you,
Why question it any further?
I will keep looking at you in this coin,
And I will never let anyone else look at it.
Even if God Himself comes and asks,
I will not drop it as an offering.
I saw the round pits of the pallanguzhi (traditional board game), a single coin.
I saw the holes of a flute, a single coin.
I saw the pupil in fluttering eyes,
I saw the time on a clock,
I saw the center of a chrysanthemum flower,
I saw the wheel on the national flag,
One night, I saw the full moon,
A single coin.
